Data Architect Job Description
The Global Technology organization has a heavy focus on Technology & Data and is seeking a Senior level Data Architect to engage in and lead some very exciting work.

This role requires a unique combination of skills: strong knowledge of data throughout its lifecycle from capture to storage to multi-channel consumption and disposition, deep technology knowledge to leverage automation wherever possible, the ability to work across and influence many partners (e.g. technology, business data stewards, regulatory, analytics) and both a strategic and technical mindset.
