Job Description
You'll work across business and technology partners to define clear meaning, consistent definitions, and durable models that scale. You'll leverage AI to automate data architecture design workflows and deliver "Data Architecture as a Product". If you enjoy turning complexity into clarity-and making data easier to discover, understand, and use-this role offers high visibility and strong growth opportunities.
Job summary
As a Lead Data Architect in our wealth management data architecture team, you define the conceptual, logical, and physical data models for domains and data products. You create and maintain data models, taxonomies, business glossaries, metadata, and a semantic layer so teams can build analytics and artificial intelligence solutions with confidence. You partner with stakeholders to align on canonical business concepts, stable identifiers, and clear definitions that make data easier to find, interpret, and govern. You help shape the target-state architecture by setting standards that enable interoperability and sustainable evolution over time.
