  • Drive domain-based architecture and data product strategies aligned with enterprise objectives.

Data Modeling & Snowflake Architecture

  • Architect and maintain scalable Snowflake data structures optimized for analytics and AI consumption.
  • Design dimensional, domain-oriented, and consumption-focused data models.
  • Develop and govern semantic layers, curated views, and reusable analytical data products.

AI-Ready Data Foundations

  • Architect data structures that support natural language querying, AI-assisted analytics, and generative AI solutions.
  • Define semantic frameworks that make business and technical context discoverable and reusable.
  • Ensure data and metadata are structured for AI, agent-based access, and future intelligent applications.
  • Partner with AI and analytics teams to enable contextual, cross-domain data experiences.

Documentation & Knowledge Management

  • Establish standards for documenting data architecture, models, lineage, business definitions, and usage patterns.
  • Create and maintain architecture diagrams, data flow documentation, data dictionaries, and technical specifications.
  • Ensure architecture artifacts remain accurate, discoverable, and aligned with evolving business processes.
  • Champion documentation practices that support both human users and AI-enabled knowledge retrieval.

Stakeholder & Business Partnership

  • Collaborate with portfolio managers, researchers, risk teams, operations, and technology partners to understand data requirements.
  • Translate business objectives into scalable architectural solutions.
  • Lead architecture reviews and provide guidance on technology and data strategy decisions.
  • Communicate complex architectural concepts effectively to both technical and non-technical audiences.

What We're Looking For:

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
