Job Title: Information Architect
Location: ONSITE in Charlotte, NC or Iselin, NJ
- Senior or lead-level architect and hands-on practitioner, able to take initiatives from concept through design, architecture, and working prototypes rather than strategy alone.
- Deep data and information architecture: conceptual, logical, canonical, and semantic data models; authoritative systems of record and reusable data products; source-to-target mapping, data lineage, reconciliation, auditability, metadata, and governance.
- Modern integration and platform fluency across APIs, event streaming (Kafka), ETL/ELT, data virtualization, Lakehouse consumption, and cloud or object storage such as NetApp S3.
- Financial-services domain depth across risk, compliance, finance, and regulatory contexts, with the ability to translate business and regulatory needs into scalable architecture.
- AI-embedded delivery: applies GenAI, agentic AI, LLM/RAG, and knowledge-graph techniques to real use cases and rapid prototypes, while keeping AI governed, explainable, and compliant with Responsible AI, Model Risk, privacy, and security expectations.
- Strong communicator and influencer with executive presence, comfortable presenting to senior leaders and Architecture Review Boards and operating independently in ambiguous, matrixed environments.
- Typically 7+ years in engineering and solution architecture, with 5+ years in a relevant financial-services domain, and familiarity with an enterprise architecture framework such as TOGAF.
Role : Data & Information Architect, Testing & Monitoring - Aligned to the enterprise Testing & Monitoring platform within Corporate Risk and Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC).
- Own the data information strategy, target-state architecture, and sourcing roadmap for the enterprise Testing & Monitoring platform.
- Model the core GRC domains (Risk, Control, Obligation, Issue, Test, Process, and Evidence) with canonical, semantic, and business-glossary definitions.
- Define sourcing from authoritative systems of record and design ingestion using APIs, ETL/ELT, event streaming, virtualization, and metadata-driven patterns.
- Enable configurable testing, risk-based sampling, control-effectiveness measurement, automated evidence collection, and end-to-end regulatory traceability.
- Apply Neo4j, knowledge graphs, and ontologies for lineage, impact analysis, and cross-domain risk intelligence.
- Embed AI for anomaly detection, intelligent sampling, evidence summarization, obligation-to-control mapping, and predictive issue identification.
Nice to have: experience data catalog, metadata, and lineage tooling
What Makes a Strong Match
We are looking for a builder-minded architect who pairs strategic vision with hands-on execution: someone who structures ambiguity, makes sound decisions, and drives initiatives independently. The strongest candidates combine data-architecture depth, financial-services domain fluency, and practical AI skill to deliver solutions that are governed, resilient, and auditable, and they bring the executive presence to align business, risk, data, and engineering stakeholders.
