Senior Google Data Architect

Overview

Description Join us as a Google Data Architect Senior and help shape the future of our enterprise data ecosystem. In this high‑impact role, you’ll leverage the full power of the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) to design and deliver modern, scalable, and secure data solutions that fuel analytics, real‑time intelligence, and digital transformation across the organization. As a senior technical leader, you’ll collaborate closely with engineering, product, and business partners to define target‑state data architectures and bring them to life using GCP’s modern data stack—including Big Query, Pub/Sub, Dataflow, Cloud Composer, Apigee, GKE, and Google Cloud Bigtable for high‑throughput, low‑latency workloads.

You will translate complex business requirements into elegant end‑to‑end architecture patterns spanning data ingestion, transformation, storage, integration, and governance
. Your work will directly influence the scalability, reliability, and strategic value of our data platforms while advancing the organization’s enterprise data strategy.

• Architect modern, cloud‑native data solutions using GCP’s advanced analytics and data engineering services.
• Design resilient pipelines and ingestion frameworks that support batch, streaming, and real‑time workloads.
• Apply best‑practice data modeling across conceptual, logical, and physical layers to support both operational and analytical use cases.
• Lead solution design for Bigtable‑based, high‑velocity operational data platforms.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to define standards, patterns, and reusable frameworks that accelerate delivery.
• Champion secure‑by‑design practices, performance optimization, observability, and governance across all data solutions.
• Influence enterprise data strategy and help guide the evolution of our cloud data ecosystem.
• Enterprise Data Modeling & Architecture Design conceptual, logical, and physical data models supporting analytical and operational use cases, aligned with Huntington’s enterprise data architecture patterns.
• High‑Scale, Low‑Latency Data Solutions with Bigtable Architect and optimize large‑scale No
