Job Description
Project – the aim you’ll have
We are the Data & Analytics Global Capability at Software Mind. We design, build and maintain data and analytics solutions for clients across industries: financial services, telco, media & entertainment, retail, manufacturing, gaming, healthcare and more. Our projects run on modern data platforms, mainly Snowflake and Databricks on Azure, AWS and GCP, as well as on-premises and hybrid environments.
Role – how you’ll contribute
Architecture & Delivery:
• Assess the client’s current data landscape and design target-state architectures (cloud, hybrid, on-prem) aligned with their business goals.
• Select technologies based on the client’s needs, constraints and existing stack, with Snowflake and Databricks as our core platforms.
• Design lakehouse, warehouse and data lake architectures, including ingestion, ETL/ELT pipelines, CDC, streaming and API integrations.
• Design data models (conceptual, logical, physical) using Kimball, Data Vault or 3NF, as well as semantic layers for BI and AI.
• Define security (IAM, encryption, masking, row-level security), HA/DR, performance and cost optimization.
• Build data governance foundations: catalog, metadata, lineage, data quality and data contracts.
• Make sure platforms are ready for advanced analytics, ML, GenAI and real-time use cases.
• Create reference architectures, reusable patterns and accelerators for our Data & AI offering.
• Act as technical authority for delivery teams: review designs and keep quality consistent across projects.
Presales & Client Advisory
• Partner with sales and industry teams as technical presales: discovery workshops, solution design, estimations and the technical parts of proposals and RFPs.
• Present architectures and recommendations to client stakeholders, from engineering teams to C-level.
• Design and run PoCs and technical demos.
• Evaluate new approaches and tools (data mesh, streaming-first, AI-native platforms) and share what you learn internally and externally.
