Our client is launching a strategic initiative to consolidate a highly fragmented data landscape into a unified One-Data Platform built on Microsoft Fabric. The current ecosystem spans multiple tools, data sources, and pipelines across business units and geographies, resulting in duplicated efforts, inconsistent reporting, and limited data accessibility.
The goal is to deliver a scalable, governed, enterprise-grade data platform that serves as the single source of truth for analytics, AI, and operational use cases. This platform will enable self-service analytics, accelerate data product delivery, and support the organization's data-driven transformation.
We are seeking an experienced Platform Architect to lead the architectural vision, solution design, and technical governance of the Microsoft Fabric-based One-Data Platform. The successful candidate will work closely with client stakeholders, engineering teams, and delivery leadership to ensure the platform is scalable, secure, and aligned with business objectives.
