Senior Data Architect
Description
We're seeking an exceptional Data Architect to lead data storage strategy and design across our multi-product SaaS platform as we unify independent products into a coherent platform. This role combines strategic leadership with hands-on technical expertise—you'll shape our data architecture vision while getting into the details during implementation and troubleshooting.
Key Responsibilities: • Drive data architecture unification across multiple SaaS products, creating coherent patterns while respecting product needs. • Partner with vertical technical leads to provide horizontal architectural support and alignment. • Design and optimize data storage across multiple technologies—AWS OpenSearch/Elasticsearch, relational databases, S3, NoSQL, and data warehousing. • Optimize for performance and resilience— indexing, querying, high availability, redundancy, and disaster recovery at scale. • Support AI initiatives—partner with our AI specialist team on data architecture for AI capabilities. • Bring clarity from ambiguity—translate complex challenges into clear architectural direction. • Build capability, not dependencies—mentor engineers so teams become more self-sufficient. • Balance performance, cost, and reliability across our platform.
Qualifications: • Deep expertise in AWS OpenSearch/Elasticsearch—you've solved hard problems at scale with indexing, querying, and performance. • Broad data technology experience—relational databases (e.g. PostgreSQL, MySQL, RDS), object storage (S3), NoSQL (e.g. DynamoDB, MongoDB, Redis), data warehousing. • Cloud and container knowledge—AWS preferred (Azure/GCP also valued); understand stateful services in Kubernetes. • Proven platform architecture experience—track record of driving technical strategy across multiple teams or products at scale. • Senior-level maturity—you make those around you better through mentorship and capability building. • Influence without authority—you work effectively across teams, bring clarity from ambiguity, and think strategically. • SaaS experience—comfortable with multi-tenant environments and operational excellence.
