1. Position Summary
We are looking for a Principal Data Architect with mastery across Databricks to lead the design and evolution of our enterprise data platform. This is a senior individual contributor role with broad influence — you will set the architectural direction for how data is ingested, stored, transformed, governed, and consumed across the organisation.
The ideal candidate brings deep, hands-on expertise in both ecosystems — not surface-level familiarity — and has a proven track record of designing production-grade, scalable data platforms that serve analytics, machine learning, and operational workloads. You will work at the intersection of strategy and engineering, translating business requirements into robust technical blueprints while mentoring engineering teams on their implementation.
