Régina SK, Canada BQ INTERNATIONAL LTD. Full time

SaskEnergy’s Digital, Technology, and Security (DT&S) group is comprised of several functional groups focused on project delivery, architecture, records and information management, security, application, infrastructure management, and enterprise analytics. The DT&S department consists of approximately 90 multi-vendor contractors.

The Analytics team, within Business Process and Analytics, provides business intelligence, analytical modelling, data management and data governance services throughout SaskEnergy. The Analytics team has made a lot of progress helping deliver value to the business through effective reporting and basic modelling but is a growing department and the focus is shifting to long term sustainability and larger projects to cement the initial gains.

A new major initiative is underway within Analytics to help use data and analytics to help the organization develop better processes to balance natural gas supplied with natural gas consumed. This initiative requires effective data management and data architecture services to ensure successful completion and implementation within the organizational data strategy. Further, as this problem is a foundational one that touches many parts of the business, the focus needs to be on building out an architecture that respects data management, governance, architecture and quality best practices.

SaskEnergy is seeking a data architect resource with a broad-based background of technical experience to be part of the DT&S team. The resource MUST have a minimum five (5) years of recent (last 5 years) and practical IT experience in modern data management principles such as, but not limited to practical data design, architecture, management, modelling, quality, and analytics experience. The successful candidate will demonstrate a broad and solid understanding of these principles.

The successful Data Architect candidate will have:

1. A Degree or Diploma in Computer Science / Engineering, Data Sciences or a related discipline;

2. Five (5) + years’ experience in a data design, data architecture, data management and data modelling;

3. Experience with developing reports and dashboards with PowerBI or another modern BI tool.

4. Proficiency with Microsoft SQL required;

5. Experience with cloud computing and cloud data warehousing & analytics tools.

6. Experience in developing and influencing Data Management programs;

7. Expert knowledge of each data management knowledge area as laid out by Data Management Association (DAMA) and the Data Management Body of Knowledge (DMBoK);

8. Certification in TOGAF; Certified Data Management Profession Certificate, Data Management Capability Assessment Model, or equivalent;

9. Extensive experience developing reference architectures and models;

10. Experience with modern Data Science and Artificial Intelligence platforms, techniques and tools.

11. Experience influencing and establishing strategic direction within an organization;

12. Experience working closely with business leaders, including presenting to senior management and the Executive;

13. Strong leadership and facilitation skills in communicating technical information effectively in an easy-to-understand language;

14. Knowledge and exposure to data privacy and confidentiality regulations such as Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA);

Typical activities in the Data Architect role include:

1. Work closely with the Analytics team to deliver strategies and roadmaps;

2. Developing reference architectures and models;

3. Consulting DT&S and Business leaders on data and information management practices and governance;

4. Recommending strategic direction for the improvement of the analytics environment;

5. Actively contributing to architecture boards and continued improvement of our practice;

6. Supporting business resources, Solution Architects, Business Analysts, Data Scientists, Data Engineers and Data Analysts on project initiatives;

7. Monitor and resolve database and data warehouse issues and problems and ensure they are in line with company policies and any external regulations that may apply;

8. Oversee integration and migration of data from legacy and on-premises systems to new solutions, including utilization of cloud technologies;

9. Championing efforts to improve business performance through enterprise information capabilities, such as master data management (MDM), metadata management, analytics, content management, data integration, and related data management or data infrastructure;

10. Provide insight into the changing database and data warehouse integration, storage and utilization requirements for the company and offer suggestions for solutions;

11. Monitor and understand Information Management trends and emerging technologies.

12. Educate staff members through training and individual support;

The key skills and knowledge areas required for the resource are outlined in attached Appendix C – Supplementary Specifications. The Enterprise Architect must be able to perform in a team environment with strong interpersonal and professional communication skills. North American job experience is considered an asset for this proposal. Proponents are encouraged to provide specific and qualitative verbiage of other areas where their expertise can add value to our teams, and make our projects as successful as possible.

The preference for start date is as soon as possible. The initial term for this role will conclude on March 31, 2023 ; after which SaskEnergy will evaluate its ongoing requirements and potentially extend the term for this Resource in accordance with the terms and conditions of the proponent’s Technology Master Service Agreement (TMSA).

CONTRACT DURATION

The Contract will be effective for an initial term commencing on the date of award and ending on March 31, 2023. After which, SaskEnergy will evaluate its ongoing requirements and may have the option to renew the Contract for successive one (1) year terms, a maximum of four (4) times, unless the Contract is terminated in accordance with its provisions or by either party, at least ten (10) business days prior to the expiry of the then current term, providing the other party with written notice of its intent to terminate the Contract upon the conclusion of the then current term.
