  • Data Infrastructure Modernization: Develop modern data architectures that enable advanced analytics, real-time data processing, and enhanced data governance within GCP.
  • Integration with Bank Systems: Collaborate with internal stakeholders to design and integrate data architectures that support critical banking functions, including currency management, transactional data, and regulatory compliance.
  • Cloud Adoption & Optimization: Implement cloud-native data tools and methodologies to optimize performance and cost-efficiency in the cloud environment.
  • Governance & Compliance: Establish governance frameworks to ensure that data management practices are compliant with industry standards, regulatory requirements, and internal security protocols (e.g., GDPR, PCI-DSS).
  • Collaboration & Leadership: Work closely with cross-functional teams, including development, infrastructure, and security, to ensure data systems are optimized and integrated within the broader cloud ecosystem.
  • Performance Monitoring & Reporting: Continuously monitor and assess the performance of data systems, recommending optimizations for cost reduction and improved functionality.
  • Documentation & Best Practices: Develop documentation and promote best practices for data systems architecture, ensuring alignment with cloud migration objectives and enterprise architecture standards.

Required Qualifications:

  • Education: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Data Science, or a related field. Advanced certifications in cloud architecture, data engineering, or GCP are a plus.
  • Experience: Minimum of 7-10 years in data architecture, with at least 5 years of experience working with cloud technologies, specifically Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
  • Proven experience with migrating legacy data systems to the cloud and designing cloud-native data architectures.
  • Deep knowledge of data storage, processing, and management in a cloud environment (e.g., BigQuery, Cloud Storage, Cloud SQL, Dataflow).
  • Strong expertise in data modeling, ETL processes, and real-time data processing frameworks.
  • Industry Experience: Strong understanding of financial services and banking industry data systems, including regulatory compliance and security practices.
  • Hands-on experience with data security practices on GCP, including encryption, access control, and compliance requirements.
  • Cloud Architecture Tools: Familiarity with GCP-native data tools (e.g., BigQuery, Pub/Sub, Dataflow, Dataproc, GCS) and third-party tools for data migration and management.

Desired Skills:

  • Strong knowledge of currency applications and financial data systems, particularly within the banking environment.
  • Ability to design data systems that support advanced analytics, machine learning, and real-time transaction processing.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to think strategically and innovate in a cloud-first environment.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to engage with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
