Data Architect - Azure / Fabric
Salary: up to £85,000
Location: West Yorkshire (1-2 days p/w)
About the Opportunity
Our client is a fast-growing RegTech group providing identity verification, AML, and digital compliance solutions to regulated businesses. Following a recent acquisition, they are bringing two established platforms together and investing heavily in the data foundations that will underpin the combined group.
The Role
As a Data Architect, you will define how commercial and customer data works across the combined estate, starting with the contract and entitlement model that several in-flight programmes depend on a CRM rebuild in HubSpot, a finance transformation onto NetSuite, a new commercial model, automated usage rating, and a platform integration programme.
This is a hands-on architecture role, not a governance-only one. You will be modelling, profiling real data, and writing the specifications that engineering and finance teams build from. Our client is open about the starting position: the data landscape is fragmented and the two platforms model the same concepts differently. That is the problem, and it is an interesting one.
Key Responsibilities
- Produce an enterprise data entity map across core business entities, identifying systems of record, relationships, and conflicts.
- Establish canonical definitions and named owners with commercial, finance, product, and engineering.
- Design the canonical contract and entitlement model, supporting prepaid wallet, subscription-with-overage, and a new blended model - with effective dating, versioning, and full lineage from invoice line back to usage event.
- Define the target quote-to-cash flow, keeping operational billing and analytical reporting paths cleanly separated.
- Profile contract, entitlement, and usage data, and assess quality and migration remediation.
- Specify the data contracts between CRM, rating/billing, and finance, and the requirements for usage rating and metering.

Skills & Experience
- Strong enterprise data modelling across conceptual, logical, and physical layers in a multi-system estate, with real examples of entity maps and canonical models produced.
- Experience modelling contract, entitlement, subscription, or usage-based billing data - temporal modelling and point-in-time reconstruction are non-negotiable.
- Data architecture in a regulated environment: auditability, lineage, retention, and PII handling under UK GDPR.
- Ability to design both OLTP and OLAP pathways without conflating them.
- Data governance in practice - glossaries, ownership, stewardship, data quality.
- The ability to get commercial, finance, product, and engineering people into a room and come out with agreed definitions.
