ABOUT THE TEAM

The Data Analytics Platform team is seeking to accelerate PSP’s Data & Analytics capabilities. As data and AI usage grows across the organization, there is an increasing need to strengthen architectural coherence, establish scalable data foundations, and enable consistent reuse across domains.

ABOUT YOUR ROLE

The Domain Architect, Enterprise Data Architecture defines the enterprise data domain vision, target-state architecture, and multi-year roadmap aligned with enterprise architecture guiding principles, ensuring data is structured, reusable, and supports effective business decisions. Success in this role requires a strong technological background balanced with an orientation toward business outcomes; data architecture decisions must be driven by how the business creates value from data, while respecting technology imperatives.

As a Domain Architect, Enterprise Data Architecture, you’ll:

• Define and maintain enterprise standards for data modeling/semantics, data product structure, and integration patterns to support clear ownership, semantic consistency, and reuse across domains

• Act as design authority by reviewing and challenging designs, establishing decision frameworks and escalation paths, and preventing architectural drift

• Ensure data foundations support advanced analytics and AI by enforcing readiness criteria including quality, lineage, consistency, and explainability, and evaluating decisions for scalability, reuse, and governance

• Translate architecture principles into clear execution rules within a federated operating model, clarifying domain versus platform responsibilities and embedding governance-by-design including data quality expectations, certification controls, and traceability

• Coach and mentor teams and stakeholders on data architecture practices, communicate architectural trade-offs, risks, and dependencies to technical and business stakeholders, and elevate data architectural maturity across teams

• Research, assess, and experiment with emerging data and analytics technologies and patterns to meet evolving business needs, considering internal capabilities and market innovation

• Actively contribute to the definition, promotion, and implementation of TDO strategic enterprise architecture vision, roadmap, and architectural guiding principles

WHAT YOU’LL NEED

• Ten (10) + years in enterprise data architecture, data platforms, analytics architecture, or closely related experience

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, finance and/or the equivalent combination of education in related fields

• Proven experience establishing and governing data architecture at scale in complex, large-scale environments

• Deep expertise in data modeling, semantics, and scalable data design; strong understanding of analytics/reporting/decision-use of data

• Ability to translate business needs into durable data structures, standards, and roadmaps

• Experience operating as a Domain Architect—setting direction and enforcing standards without direct hierarchical authority

• Strong technological background and pragmatic mindset; able to simplify complexity and drive adoption across diverse stakeholders

• Comfortable making and defending decisions in ambiguous environments

• Bilingualism: English and French (frequent interactions in English with PSP employees based in our offices in Hong Kong, London and New York, and interactions in French with employees in our local offices in Montreal and Ottawa)
