Data Architect – 100% RemoteSummaryData is at the core of everything we do; it powers the business, empowers our people, and allows us to leave things better than we found them. Do you love pulling the big strings, designing elegant solutions, and solving complex problems with a group of sharp-minded, amazing people? Did you grow up in the programming space but figure out quickly that being able to move terabytes of data with a small script is so much more fun? Do diagrams of data easily transfer from paper to code and back again in your brain?
The Data Architect has a highly advanced skillset that will allow them to dream and implement complex models, datasets, warehouses, workflows, and solutions all related to our ever-growing data ecosystem. Our team, with your addition, will push the boundaries of BI, strengthen the backbone of our data infrastructure, and allow our company to achieve things others only dream they could do. We have adopted an idea that a "roadmap" feels a little too permanent and have adopted the concept of an "option map". The ability to "change if we need to" regarding technologies that power our business is essential. We need someone that understands this concept and is willing to bend like an Olympic gymnast when they need to and embrace a better mousetrap, maybe even build one of our own.

- Drive the architecture, design, building, and launching of data models and data pipelines for implementation into production.
- Build cross-functional relationships with business leaders, business analysts, and data analysts to help them understand how data can effectively inform and transform business unit operations.
- Produce the appropriate documentation, pictorial data model diagrams, and any other artifacts that help understand the complexities of the data.
- Produce the data architecture needed to support current and future business systems.
- Coach and mentor other data team members related to best practices and solutions.
- Help us to make better decisions, empower our people, and solve problems.

- Build and support documentation around enterprise data lineage, mapping, and source to target transformations.
