Job Summary

The University of British Columbia is seeking a highly skilled Data Architect to lead the development of data governance frameworks for multiple initiatives. The successful candidate will be responsible for guiding the research, planning, definition, refinement, and implementation of the data architecture for the data and systems that are part of IT investments.

This is a key role that reports to the Chief Data Officer and works closely with data governance stakeholders, data stewards, and enterprise and solution architects. The Data Architect will ensure that all proposed solutions are aligned with the business needs, project constraints, enterprise architecture, and data governance standards.

Key Responsibilities

  • Assess the benefits and risks of data architecture initiatives by using tools such as business capability models to identify priorities for the University.

  • Develop a future-state view of the data landscape that is not limited by specific data implementation details imposed by proprietary solutions or technologies.

  • Coordinate change activities to ensure that the Enterprise Architecture team can consolidate multiple data sources and repositories to deliver additional business value.

  • Influence data strategy by providing strategic, information-based recommendations to protect the organization from disruptions while also embracing innovation.

  • Assist the CDO in the development of governance processes and strategies by providing recommendations on actions to take with what information and in what circumstances.

  • Create and manage data models in all their forms, including conceptual models, logical models, relational database designs, message models, and others.

  • Ensure that University data adds value by exploring the impact of business strategy changes on data management practices with the Enterprise Architecture team. Investigate ways to extract additional value from existing data assets.

  • Ensure that the architecture is used as a lens and a filter to enable the CDO to focus only on those internal and external data sources and repositories required to deliver the targeted business value.

  • Analyze data security requirements and solutions, and work with the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and the CDO to ensure that data (both on-premises and in the cloud) is treated as a protected asset.

  • Champion 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.

Requirements

  • Post-graduate degree.

  • Minimum of ten years of related experience, including at least four years of managerial experience and three years of specialized experience in the design and implementation of major computer systems, or the equivalent combination of education and experience.

  • Willingness to respect diverse perspectives, including perspectives in conflict with one's own.

  • Demonstrates a commitment to enhancing one's own awareness, knowledge, and skills related to equity, diversity, and inclusion.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Significant experience writing policies and procedures.

  • Exceptional written and oral communication skills, including the ability to present ideas and suggestions clearly and effectively.

  • Ability to educate and influence program stakeholders regarding program goals, objectives, and approach.

  • Superior follow-up skills; ability to organize applicable department timelines and follow up with internal and external customer needs.

  • Superior organizational skills; ability to accomplish multiple tasks within the agreed-upon timeframes through effective prioritization of duties and functions in a fast-paced environment.

  • Strong track record of building and maintaining solid relationships with internal and external customers and vendors.

  • Self-motivated; able to work independently to complete tasks and respond to department requests and to collaborate with others to utilize their resources and knowledge to identify high-quality solutions.

  • Ability to work with functional groups and different levels of employees throughout the organization to effectively and professionally achieve results.

  • Demonstrated ability to relate business problems to the underlying data and link to solutions to solve those business problems.
