Cloud Data Architect (Contract-to-Hire | Remote ET/CT)
Duration: 6-month CTH
Location: Fully remote (ET or CT time zones preferred)
A high-growth company is launching a greenfield SAP S/4HANA RISE implementation and building a modern enterprise analytics platform from the ground up. They’re looking for a Cloud Data Architect to lead the design and delivery of a scalable data warehouse/lakehouse that will power reporting and decision-making across the business.
What you’ll do
Architect and deliver a cloud data warehouse + lakehouse to ingest large-scale transactional and operational data
Define integration and ingestion strategies and oversee pipeline design and execution
Build a reference architecture leveraging Databricks + Delta Lake (Snowflake also in the mix)
Design data and semantic models to unify reporting across Tableau, Power BI, and SAP Analytics Cloud
Drive performance optimization (query tuning, modeling decisions, platform reliability)
Partner closely with business and technical stakeholders to align data products to real outcomes
What we’re looking for
7+ years in data engineering / cloud data architecture with experience standing up data warehouses (not just supporting existing ones)
Strong SQL and strong data modeling fundamentals
SAP S/4HANA experience is a major plus and a key hiring factor
Cloud experience: Azure preferred, but AWS or Google Cloud Platform is fine
Platform experience: Databricks and/or Snowflake preferred (similar tools also acceptable)
Why this is interesting
You’ll help define the foundation of a modern data platform during a major transformation—greenfield build, real scale, and direct business impact.
Interested? Apply with your resume, and include a quick note on your SAP S/4 exposure (if applicable) and the platforms you’ve worked with (Azure/AWS/Google Cloud Platform, Databricks/Snowflake).
