Role Overview

The Senior Data Solutions Architect - Azure is responsible for leading the design, governance, and delivery of complex, multi-workload data analytics programs on Microsoft Azure.

  • Demonstrated expertise in Azure Fabric/AWS Lake Formation + Glue, including OneLake design, capacity management, and the unification of Data Engineering/Data Science workloads.
  • Strong background in Data Governance implementation using Microsoft Purview (cataloging, lineage, sensitivity labeling, and policy enforcement) is
    a big Advantage.
  • Experience with modern data engineering patterns (Medallion Architecture, Data Mesh/Fabric concepts, CI/CD for Data, Python/PySpark, SQL).
  • Prior consulting, professional services, or customer-facing data architecture experience required.

  • Define target state architectures aligned to modern best practices (Medallion Architecture, Data Mesh, Zero Trust for Data).

2. Program Delivery Leadership

  • Provide architectural oversight for large-scale data modernization projects (e.g., migrating legacy SQL/Synapse/Hadoop to Fabric or Databricks).
  • Ensure technical integrity, performance optimization, and alignment with enterprise data patterns.
  • Guide data engineering teams, provide mentorship, perform code/design reviews, and support technical escalations.

3. Data Governance & Security (Purview)

  • Define data security baselines, RBAC models (Unity Catalog/Fabric capabilities), row-level security, and encryption standards.
  • Lead the implementation of Microsoft Purview for Fabric to govern data assets across hybrid and multi-cloud landscapes.
  • Ensure adherence to regulatory compliance (GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA) via automated scanning, classification, and lineage tracking.

4. Customer Engagement & Advisory

  • Drive architectural decision-making, trade-off discussions (e.g., Import vs. Direct Lake, Spark vs. T-SQL), and roadmap alignment.
  • Support presales at SME capacity: estimation, solutioning, and SOW definition for new data engagements.

5. Delivery Excellence & Coaching

  • Provide end-to-end technical leadership throughout the data program lifecycle.
  • Mentor and upskill engineers and jr. architects on the transition to Azure Fabric and Databricks best practices.
  • Contribute to internal accelerators, frameworks, and reusable data processing templates.

Ideal Candidate Background

  • Comes from a consulting, professional services, or systems integrator background (e.g., large SI, large boutique data partner) - e.g., Slalom, Avanade, Capgemini.
  • Comfortable supporting strategy-to-execution with diverse stakeholder groups (CDOs, Data Stewards, App teams).
  • Strong understanding of FinOps for data (managing Databricks DBUs/Fabric Capacities) and cloud operating models.
  • Can navigate ambiguity and drive clarity through architectural direction and decision frameworks.

Soft Skills & Leadership Attributes

  • Ability to drive consensus and influence senior technical stakeholders.
  • Strong problem-solving, risk management, and decision-making capabilities.
  • Ownership mindset, high accountability, and ability to lead under pressure.
