Analyze complex business problems by conducting research and assessments to identify opportunities and recommend actionable, scalable solutions. Design robust data pipelines, ETL/ELT processes, and conceptual, logical, and physical data models to support analytical products. Lead proofs of concept (POCs), evaluate technology vendors, and oversee implementation of complex, scalable data solutions. Establish architectural patterns for data products, semantic layers, domain models, and cross-domain analytics. Ensure architectures meet enterprise standards for scalability, performance, reliability, security, governance, data quality, and observability. Drive adoption of AI/ML and Generative AI capabilities, including architectures leveraging RAG, embeddings, agents, and LLM orchestration. Partner with Data Science and Engineering teams to operationalize ML and GenAI solutions using production-grade patterns. Act as a trusted architectural advisor to Product, Engineering, Platform, and Business leaders, influencing roadmaps and investment decisions. Balance strategic architecture with delivery-focused execution, enabling teams to move quickly without compromising long-term sustainability. Produce clear architecture diagrams and technical documentation to communicate complex concepts to technical and executive stakeholders. Support enterprise decision-making by articulating architectural trade-offs, risks, and long-term implications.
