In today’s digital age, data isn’t just a byproduct—it’s a differentiator. As we invest in data mesh architecture and FAIR data principles, we’re seeking a Data Architect / Data Modeling Specialist (all) to lead the way.
Imagine walking into a company where every domain has ownership of its data, where access is secure but seamless, and where quality and governance are not afterthoughts—they’re built in by design. That’s what you’ll help create.
Your main responsibilities
- Design, evolve and validate conceptual, logical, and physical data models that align with business goals and technical requirements.
- Shape scalable, domain-oriented data architectures that support data mesh principles.
- Define and enforce data standards, governance policies, and best practices to ensure data quality, consistency, and security.
- Validate data products to ensure they meet technical specifications and governance criteria, including lineage and automation readiness.
- Collaborate with data engineers, analysts, and domain experts to translate business needs into effective data solutions.
- Champion automation, discoverability, and reusability of data across domains.
- Promote data literacy and foster a culture where data is a common language.
Your profile
- 5–10 years of experience in data architecture, modeling, or engineering
- Deep understanding of relational and NoSQL databases, data warehouse/lake/cloud platforms
- Mastery of data modeling techniques like ER and dimensional modeling
- Familiarity with ETL pipelines, integration patterns, and data quality frameworks
- Experience in data governance implementation
- Fluency in English; French or German is a plus
- It’s a bonus if you’ve worked with data mesh architecture or domain-driven data design.
Be part of a team where data is more than just numbers—it's a shared language that drives innovation.
