What's in it for you?

• $180,000 - $240,000 + super
• Genuine ownership of the data architecture and the opportunity to shape the future-state technology landscape.

• Build data governance from the ground up, including data quality, lineage, business glossary and enforceable data contracts.
• Define the system landscape and source of truth, ensuring clear ownership of critical data across connected platforms.

What we’re looking for:

• Proven Data Architecture experience — someone who has genuinely operated as a Data Architect and set standards for other engineers to build against.
• Hands-on experience designing and governing Redshift data warehouse environments.
• Strong understanding of data quality, lineage, business glossaries, data contracts and warehouse modelling.
• Salesforce or a comparable CRM, with experience designing data flows, identity/access and integrations across a connected technology ecosystem.
