We are seeking a Senior Databricks Architect to own the target-state design of enterprise-scale lakehouse platforms and to act as the trusted technical authority for our clients' data modernization programs.

This is not a delivery-only engineering role. You will shape architecture before code is written: running discovery and assessment of legacy estates, defining reference architectures and migration roadmaps, setting platform standards, and defending design decisions in front of enterprise architecture boards, CISOs, and business sponsors. You will remain hands-on enough to prototype, unblock delivery teams, and prove that your designs work in production.
You will work across regulated and data-sensitive industries (financial services, banking, insurance, energy, retail), where security, governance, auditability, and cost predictability are as important as raw performance.

Key Responsibilities
Define target-state lakehouse reference architectures on Databricks, including medallion (bronze/silver/gold) design, workspace topology, environment segregation (dev/test/prod),



and multi-region / multi-tenant patterns
Produce architecture artifacts that survive client review: solution blueprints, data flow and integration diagrams, Architecture Decision Records (ADRs), non-functional requirements, and risk registers
Select the right patterns for each workload — batch vs. Structured Streaming / Auto Loader / Lakeflow Declarative Pipelines (DLT), classic vs. serverless compute, Delta Lake / Iceberg interoperability (UniForm)
Define data modeling standards (dimensional, Data Vault, domain/data-mesh-oriented data products) and semantic-layer strategy for downstream BI consumption
Lead discovery and assessment of legacy estates (Teradata, Netezza, Oracle/Exadata, SQL Server, Hadoop/Cloudera, Informatica, SSIS, Synapse, Snowflake) — inventory, complexity scoring, dependency mapping
Build migration roadmaps and wave plans, including effort estimation, sequencing, coexistence/du
