We are seeking an experienced Data Architect to support a Data Strategy Discovery engagement for a global telecommunications client, spanning the Customer, Finance, and Network domains. This role will drive the assessment of the current data landscape — including an existing GCP BigQuery‑based Data Lakehouse — and help shape a target‑state data architecture, technology roadmap, and governance framework. The ideal candidate combines strong technical data architecture skills with stakeholder‑facing consulting ability, and has hands‑on familiarity with GCP data platforms.
Must‑Have
- Google Cloud Platform (GCP) — BigQuery (Data Lakehouse architecture, performance, scalability)
- ETL/ELT tools and integration patterns (batch, API‑based, CDC)
- Data governance & metadata management concepts (data catalogs, MDM, lineage tools)
- Data quality assessment/profiling methods and tools
- Experience with data architecture in Telecom or similarly complex enterprise environments
- Strong stakeholder engagement, interviewing, and documentation skills (architecture diagrams, inventories, roadmaps)
Good‑to‑Have
- Experience with GCP ecosystem tools beyond BigQuery: Dataflow, Data Fusion, Dataplex, Vertex AI, Cloud Composer
- Exposure to AI/ML data enablement and data ontology design for AI use cases
- Knowledge of GDPR and telecom‑specific regulatory/compliance frameworks
- Experience with legacy on‑prem data warehouse/lake platforms and hybrid cloud migration
- Familiarity with data governance/compliance frameworks (DAMA‑DMBOK, DCAM)
