This role defines how data is modeled, integrated, secured, and consumed, and holds the line on those standards as the platform scales.\nEssential Duties and Responsibilities\nOwn the enterprise data architecture and target-state design. Define the layered (medallion) architecture on Snowflake spanning raw, conformed, and curated layers; establish the reference architecture for ingestion, transformation, orchestration, and consumption; and maintain the architectural roadmap that sequences migration off legacy and redundant data stores.\nDesign and own the enterprise data model and semantic layer. Build conformed dimensional and normalized models covering loan, borrower, property, investor, servicing, and financial subject areas. Define certified metric logic, grain, and business keys so that origination volume, pull-through, margin, delinquency, and servicing performance resolve to one set of numbers across the enterprise.\nArchitect source system integration and data acquisition. Define ingestion patterns and contracts for the loan origination system, servicing platform, capital markets, vendor, and third-party sources, including change data capture, secure data sharing, API and file-based feeds, replay and late-arriving data handling, and schema evolution. Establish integration standards that survive vendor release cycles and upstream schema changes.\nEmbed governance, security, privacy, and regulatory requirements into the architecture. Define critical data elements, lineage, and data quality control points; design classification, masking, tokenization, and role-based access patterns for NPI and PII; and ensure the architecture supports investor, agency, and regulatory reporting obligations, audit traceability, and retention requirements.\nSet and enforce engineering and architecture standards. Define modeling conventions, naming, transformation patterns, version control, testing, CI/CD, environment promotion, and observability requirements. Lead design reviews, mentor data engineers and analytics engineers, and produce the architecture documentation, decision records, and reference implementations the team builds against.\nPartner with business, technology, and vendor stakeholders. Translate business and regulatory requirements into architectural decisions, advise application development and information security on data-impacting changes, participate in platform and tooling evaluations, and represent the data architecture in enterprise governance and vendor technical forums.\nPerforms other duties as assigned.\nPosition Requirements\nEducation\nBachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field required.\nAdvanced degree or relevant cloud data platform certification preferred.\nExperience\nMinimum ten (10) years of progressive experience in data engineering, data warehousing, or data architecture.\nMinimum four (4) years in a data architect or lead data modeler capacity, accountable for enterprise or domain-level architecture decisions.\nMortgage or consumer lending data experience strongly preferred, including familiarity with loan origination and servicing data, the loan lifecycle, and investor or agency delivery.\nDemonstrated experience designing and delivering a cloud data warehouse in production, including source onboarding, layered transformation architecture, and downstream analytics consumption.\nHands-on experience building dimensional and normalized data models that survive contact with real source system data.\nExperience integrating vendor-hosted systems of record through change data capture, secure data sharing, APIs, or replicated data feeds.\nExperience implementing data quality, lineage, and access controls in a regulated environment subject to audit or examination.\nExperience migrating or consolidating legacy reporting databases and semantic layers onto a modern cloud platform preferred.\nExperience preparing data assets for machine learning or AI consumption preferred.\nFunctional/Technical Skills\nExpert-level SQL and deep working knowledge of Snowflake or a comparable cloud data platform, including warehouse sizing, clustering, secure data sharing, and cost management.\nStrong command of data modeling technique, including dimensional modeling, slowly changing dimensions, data vault or normalized patterns, grain definition, business key management, and historization.\nProficiency with modern transformation and orchestration tooling, including dbt, workflow orchestration, Git-based version control, and CI/CD for data pipelines.\nWorking knowledge of mortgage origination and servicing data structures, including loan-level data, milestone and status data, document and condition data, escrow and payment data, and remittance and investor reporting data.\nFamiliarity with mortgage data and delivery standards such as MISMO, ULDD, and agency and investor reporting formats preferred.\nUnderstanding of regulatory reporting requirements applicable to mortgage lending, including HMDA and fair lending data, and the data lineage evidence those requirements demand.\nKnowledge of data privacy and protection requirements as applied to consumer financial data, including GLBA, CCPA/CPRA, and FCRA, and the architectural controls that satisfy them.\nExperience defining and instrumenting data quality controls, reconciliation, and observability for business-critical data delivery.\nProficiency with a programming or scripting language used in data engineering, such as Python.\nWorking knowledge of BI and semantic layer design, including Power BI or comparable platforms, and certified metric governance.\nAbility to produce clear architecture documentation, data flow diagrams, and decision records that both engineers and business stakeholders can use.\nStrong communication skills, with the ability to defend a design decision to engineers and explain its business consequence to executives.\nEnvironmental/Physical Demands\nWork is typically performed in a standard office environment.
