Mission:
Own the end-to-end design of Hydro One's Snowflake environment and ensure it scales securely and cost-effectively across the enterprise.
Key responsibilities:
Define the target-state data architecture, including account/warehouse topology, database and schema layout, and a promotion strategy across dev, test, and production environments.
Establish reusable design patterns, naming standards, and frameworks for ingestion, transformation, data modelling (e.g., medallion / data-vault), and secure data sharing.
Set guardrails for security, role-based access control (RBAC), masking, row-access policies, and data governance in partnership with security and governance teams.
Design for cost efficiency — warehouse sizing standards, auto-suspend/resume policies, resource monitors, and workload isolation.
Provide technical oversight, lead design reviews, and act as second-level support and escalation point for engineering teams.
Own the platform roadmap: evaluate new Snowflake features and define how and when Hydro One should adopt them.
