We are growing and are looking for people to join our team. You'll be part of an entrepreneurial, high-growth environment of 300.000 employees. Our dynamic organization allows you to work across functional business pillars, contributing your ideas, experiences, diverse thinking, and a strong mindset. Are you ready?\nAbout your role\nEnterprise AI is forcing organisations to rethink their data estates. Data platforms designed mainly for reporting are often not enough for GenAI, semantic search, agentic workflows and AI-enabled decision-making. Clients now need data that is trusted, governed, contextualised and consumable by both people and intelligent systems.\nWe are looking for client-facing Enterprise Data Architects to join our growing Enterprise AI practice. You will help clients transform fragmented data estates into AI-ready foundations, advising on architecture decisions across cloud data platforms, lakehouse and warehouse patterns, data products, semantic layers, metadata, lineage, governance, knowledge graphs and GenAI retrieval patterns.\nThis is a consulting role, not a purely internal architecture role. You will diagnose ambiguous client problems, shape options, make trade-offs explicit, and translate complex data architecture issues into clear decisions for both technical teams and executive stakeholders.\nYou will work in cross-functional teams alongside product owners, data scientists, ML and GenAI engineers, data engineers, business analysts and client stakeholders.\nTypical outputs may include target-state architectures, maturity assessments, platform option appraisals, data product designs, governance models, lineage maps, ontology and semantic models, integration patterns, GenAI data-readiness assessments and implementation roadmaps.\nWe are hiring across several levels. At earlier levels, we expect strong architecture delivery experience and hands-on platform understanding. At senior levels, we expect the ability to shape enterprise data strategy, influence senior stakeholders, lead complex architecture decisions and guide multi-disciplinary delivery teams.\nWe do not expect every candidate to be a specialist in every aspect of AI-ready data architecture. We are looking for architects with strong core data architecture experience and credible depth in some of the areas that matter for AI-enabled data estates, such as governance, semantic modelling, lakehouse architecture, data products, metadata management, knowledge graphs, RAG or enterprise data strategy.\nRequirements\nDesign AI-ready enterprise data architectures that enable analytics, AI, ML, GenAI and agentic applications to consume data accurately, securely and with appropriate business context. \nAssess clients’ existing data estates, diagnose structural, governance, semantic and quality issues, and design pragmatic modernisation roadmaps. \nAdvise clients on architecture and platform choices, helping them navigate trade-offs between lakehouses, warehouses, data fabrics, graph databases, semantic layers, vector search and hybrid architectures. \nDefine data governance and metadata patterns covering ownership, stewardship, quality, lineage, cataloguing, access control and data lifecycle management. \nDesign data products, data contracts and information models that make enterprise data reusable across analytics, AI, GenAI and operational workflows. \nShape semantic layers, ontologies and knowledge graph patterns where these improve data discoverability, interoperability, explainability or AI consumption. \nOversee high-level design of ingestion, integration and transformation patterns, including batch, event-driven and real-time architectures. \nIdentify and mitigate data-related risks, including poor data quality, weak provenance, data leakage, inappropriate access, retrieval failure and inference-time use of enterprise knowledge. \nAct as a trusted advisor to client stakeholders, translating technical architecture concepts into clear business outcomes, options and risks. \nContribute to proposals, client conversations, internal methods and thought leadership on enterprise data architecture and AI-ready data foundations.\nSkills and Qualifications:\nEssential Skills:\n5-10+ years, depending on level, in data architecture, enterprise architecture, solution architecture or senior data engineering roles. \nDemonstrable experience designing modern data architectures for analytics, AI, ML or GenAI consumption. \nStrong understanding of enterprise data architecture patterns, including cloud data platforms, lakehouses, warehouses, data integration, data modelling and metadata management. \nExperience contributing to or leading data governance initiatives, including catalogues, lineage, ownership, stewardship, data quality and metadata management. \nPractical understanding of semantic layers, ontologies or knowledge graph concepts, with hands-on experience in at least one of these areas. \nDeep experience with at least one major cloud data platform, such as AWS, Azure or Google Cloud, and familiarity with leading lakehouse or warehouse technologies. \nUnderstanding of how data architecture decisions affect AI and GenAI outcomes, including data quality, provenance, context, retrieval, security, privacy and semantic consistency. \nFamiliarity with GenAI data patterns such as retrieval-augmented generation, vector search, embedding pipelines, chunking strategies or enterprise search. \nStrong stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to present complex technical trade-offs clearly to non-technical sponsors and senior executives. \nExcellent written and verbal communication skills in English. \nBachelor’s degree or equivalent experience; quantitative, technical or analytical disciplines are an advantage. \nWillingness to travel, up to around 60% depending on project requirements, across the UK and internationally. \nPreferred Skills:\nA second major European language is an advantage.\nExperience with graph modelling, ontology standards or graph query languages such as RDF, OWL and SPARQL.\nFamiliarity with feature store design and MLOps / DataOps pipeline integration.\nExperience with stream processing at scale using Apache Kafka or Apache Flink.\nBackground in master data management or data mesh architecture.\nConsulting or comparable client-facing delivery experience.\nExposure to some of the following, or comparable, technologies is useful. We do not expect candidates to have worked with all of them:\no Cloud data platforms, warehouses and lakehouses: Databricks, Snowflake, Microsoft Fabric, Azure Synapse, Google BigQuery, Amazon Redshift\no Data engineering and orchestration: Spark, dbt, Airflow, Azure Data Factory, AWS Glue, Dataflow, Kafka, Flink\no Governance, catalogue and lineage: Microsoft Purview, Collibra, Informatica, Alation, Atlan, OpenLineage\no Graph, ontology and semantic technologies: Neo4j, Amazon Neptune, Stardog, GraphDB, RDF, OWL, SPARQL\no AI/ML data infrastructure: vector databases and search platforms such as Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus, Azure AI Search, OpenSearch or pgvector; feature stores such as Feast or Tecton; model lifecycle and experiment tracking tools such as MLflow\nPersonal attributes:\n· Comfortable working in ambiguous consulting environments, shaping options, making trade-offs explicit and taking senior stakeholders on the journey from strategy to implementation.\n· Self-directed, able to prioritise and juggle multiple workstreams.\n· Clear communicator who can simplify complexity for technical and non.-technical audiences alike.\n· Collaborative, curious, continuous learner\nGiven that this is just a short snapshot of the role we encourage you to apply even if you don't meet all the requirements listed above. We are looking for individuals who strive to make an impact and are eager to learn. If this sounds like you and you feel you have the skills and experience required, then please apply now.\nBenefits\nAbout your team\nAbout Enterprise AI\nOur Enterprise AI practice supports large global organisations to find and deliver business value from data and AI.
