- Collaborating closely with Data Engineers and Analytics Engineers in an agile delivery environment
- Producing architecture documentation, diagrams, and technical designs
- Influencing wider business systems to ensure strong data architecture principles are embedded throughout the organisation
- Driving best practice across data quality, consistency, scalability, and governance
