Job Description

Data Architect

Valtech

• Design and own complex, enterprise-scale data architectures across MS Fabric, Azure, GCP, AWS, or Databricks serverless or hosted environments. • Define and enforce architectural standards, patterns, and governance frameworks across ingestion, modeling, lineage, security, and orchestration. • Shape AI-enabled architecture approaches, including data foundations for ML, feature engineering, and low-latency operationalization pipelines. • Act as a principal advisor to client technical leadership, helping shape long-term strategy, roadmaps, and modernization initiatives. • Lead architectural direction during pre-sales cycles, including solutioning, scoping, estimation, and executive-level presentations. • Anticipate downstream impacts of architectural decisions; maintain ownership when delivery teams or constraints require deviation from the original design. • Architect highly available, distributed, fault-tolerant data pipelines supporting batch and streaming workloads. • Oversee migration and integration of complex, diverse data sources into Fabric, Azure, GCP, or Databricks platforms. • Define medallion/lakehouse modeling patterns across Bronze/Silver/Gold zones or cloud equivalents. • Set enterprise standards for ingestion → transformation → serving layers across multi-cloud environments. • Optimize performance of large-scale data processing across Spark, Databricks, and Fabric-native engines. • Provide leadership across 2–3 concurrent projects with variable allocation, ensuring architectural consistency and delivery quality while also contributing to in-depth technical work where needed.

Job Requirements

  • 10+ years of experience in data engineering, data architecture, or platform engineering.
  • Experience designing or building enterprise data platforms on at least one of Azure, GCP, or AWS and Databricks.
  • Deep expertise in SQL, Python, distributed data processing, and cloud-native data design.
  • Significant experience with medallion/lakehouse architecture patterns.
  • Strong knowledge of modern data platforms: Databricks, Azure Synapse, Microsoft Fabric, Delta Lake, BigQuery, etc.
  • Proven experience leading architecture across large programs and multiple concurrent projects.
  • Experience with enterprise automation and integration using REST APIs.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to engage confidently with senior leadership and clients.
  • Experience in pre-sales, technical solutioning, or client-facing architecture leadership.

Benefits

  • A comprehensive insurance plan, where you can choose the module that best suits your needs—Gold, Silver, or Bronze. The employer may contribute up to 80% of your coverage depending on the selected module. This plan includes short- and long-term disability coverage.
  • Dialogue via Sun Life provides virtual healthcare services, allowing you to consult with a healthcare professional for emergencies, prescription renewals, and more. You also have access to the Employee and Family Assistance Program, as well as a complete mental health support program.
  • A $500 Personal Spending Account, which can be used for healthcare reimbursements, gym memberships, public transit passes, office supplies, or contributions to your RRSP through Valtech.
  • A retirement plan where Valtech will match 100% of your RRSP contributions through a Deferred Profit Sharing Plan (DPSP), up to a maximum of 4%. You can start contributing to your RRSP immediately, and to the DPSP after 3 months. The vesting of the DPSP will be after a 24 months of service.
  • Access to a flexible vacation under Valtech's policy to support your work-life balance, with 5 days available during your probation period and a prorated amount calculated for the remainder of the year.
  • Personal Technology Reimbursement – $30/month for every employee-offered on day 1.
  • We close during the winter holidays and offer flexible scheduling throughout the year, so you can enjoy those sunny Friday afternoons—provided your weekly hours are completed.
