Leading provider of IT services to one of the major Japanese banking group in the EMEA region, supporting one of Japan's largest banks and a global financial powerhouse.

This is an IT-side, infrastructure-oriented engineering role responsible for the stable operation, integration, and technical configuration of the Collibra platform (including DIP/CDQ, EDGE, and Lineage Harvester) across EMEA. The role ensures reliable metadata ingestion, lineage automation, release/upgrade readiness, and platform health—enabling Data Office teams to execute data governance, rather than performing policy work itself. The engineer will partner closely with Application, ETL, and DBA teams to keep integrations robust, scalable, and well-documented.

• Administer and maintain the Collibra platform from an IT engineering perspective, including configuration, health monitoring, troubleshooting, and performance management across EMEA environments.
• Configure, schedule, and manage integrations using DIP/CDQ, EDGE, and Lineage Harvester, ensuring consistent ingestion of metadata, schemas, and lineage from multiple data sources.
• Perform connectivity and prerequisite validation with Application teams, ETL teams, and DBAs, including driver installation, credential management, network/firewall requirements and technical onboarding for new data sources.
• Investigate and resolve incidents related to Collibra integrations, lineage ingestion, and platform availability; collaborate with infrastructure teams to address root causes and prevent reoccurrence.
• Ensure configuration consistency across environments (DEV/QA/PROD), maintaining runbooks, documentation, and standard operating procedures.
• Provide regular, clear updates on operational status, risks, and issues to Development Managers and stakeholders.

• Support EMEA-wide Collibra platform stability by monitoring ingestion pipelines, schema drift, job failures, and performance degradation, ensuring reliable metadata and lineage availability.
• Maintain technical documentation, including integration configurations, onboarding guides, troubleshooting logs and operational checklists.
• Assist with access control operations, ensuring proper provisioning, least-privilege consistency, and audit-readiness for regulatory requirements.
• Participate in technical testing for new features, patches, and platform improvements, raising risks or gaps early in collaboration with vendor support and internal IT teams.
• Contribute to continuous improvement, identifying opportunities for automation, reliability enhancement, ingestion simplification and error-reduction across integrations.
