• Advance metadata management, business glossary alignment, lineage, discoverability, data quality, and traceability in partnership with data governance and business data owners.
• Assess source-system and business-process changes, determine downstream impacts, and guide model versioning, migration, and controlled change management.
• Identify opportunities to rationalize overlapping structures, reduce technical debt, and improve reuse, scalability, performance, and cost efficiency across the data ecosystem.
• Provide technical guidance and coaching to modelers, engineers, analysts, and data product teams while promoting consistent architecture practices and shared accountability for data quality.

• Working knowledge of metadata, lineage, data quality, master and reference data, security, access controls, and data-governance practices is required.
• Experience leading architecture or design reviews, communicating trade-offs, and influencing decisions across business and technical teams without direct authority is required.
• Demonstrated ability to translate complex business processes and requirements into clear, implementable architecture and model deliverables is required.
• Strong written and verbal communication, facilitation, critical-thinking, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to engage technical and non-technical audiences, are required.
