WHAT YOU'LL ARCHITECT:
As a Senior Consultant - Data & Solution Architect, you will architect modern data ecosystems that enable organizations to transform raw information into scalable intelligence. Combining deep engineering expertise with broader Azure cloud and solution architecture capabilities, you will define target-state architectures, guide delivery teams, and help clients build cloud-native data platforms designed for long-term business impact.
Collaborate with client stakeholders to translate business objectives into scalable target-state data architectures and strategic roadmaps.
Architect end-to-end data platforms, lakehouses, and pipelines using Microsoft Fabric or complementary cloud technologies such as Databricks, Snowflake, and Azure Data Services.
Design and govern medallion lakehouse architectures (Bronze, Silver, Gold) that prioritize scalability, governance, performance, and data quality.
Architect parameterized ingestion frameworks supporting batch and near real-time integrations across databases, APIs, files, streaming platforms, and hybrid environments.
Design broader Azure integration architectures connecting data platforms, enterprise applications, APIs, and cloud services using Azure Integration Services such as Logic Apps, Azure Functions, Service Bus, and API Management.
Define scalable and secure integration patterns across the Azure ecosystem, including API-based, messaging, and event-driven architectures.
Optimize pipeline and query performance through Spark tuning, partitioning strategies, shortcuts, and incremental loading techniques.
Design and optimize semantic models, including star schemas, DirectLake and Import strategies, DAX optimization, relationships, and aggregations.
Define and implement CI/CD strategies that enable reliable, automated, and scalable deployments across multiple environments.
Provide technical leadership and mentorship to Data Engineers, Analysts, and multidisciplinary delivery teams while ensuring architectural alignment.
Continuously evaluate emerging technologies and recommend innovative approaches that strengthen client data and cloud ecosystems and business capabilities.
