Deeplight

<div>DeepLight AI is a specialist AI and data consultancy with extensive experience implementing intelligent enterprise systems across multiple industries, with particular depth in financial services and banking.

DeepLight AI is seeking a visionary Data Architect to serve as the strategic blueprint designer for our most complex enterprise Lakehouse implementations. In this high-authority consultancy role, you will own the Medallion Architecture roadmap, steering high-level decision-making through SAF/ARB forums and defining the gold standard for Apache Iceberg tables&mdash;from partitioning strategies to schema evolution and time travel. You will bridge the gap between abstract design and production reality, leading Data Factory squads and providing expert mentorship to AWS Glue Engineers to ensure every line of code aligns with global modeling and lineage standards.
Technical mastery is only half the battle; we need a master communicator who can command a room of senior stakeholders. You must be able to persuasively &quot;sell&quot; your architectural vision, navigate complex escalations with diplomacy, and translate intricate metadata and lineage strategies into clear business value. If you are a technical authority who thrives on influencing the direction of large-scale financial services transformations and establishing reusable design patterns that set a firm apart, we want you at the helm of our architectural practice.
Your responsibilities as the Data Architect will include:<ul>
<li>
Architectural Leadership</li>
<li><ul><li>Design and enforce Medallion Architecture for the Lakehouse.</li>

</ul>As an AI consultancy, our greatest asset is the expertise of our people. 
 
While technical mastery is the foundation of what we do, the ability to bridge the gap between complex data science and actionable business value is what defines your success with Deeplight. 
 
We're looking for individuals who are not only world-class in their fields of specialism, but also compelling communicators and persuasive advocates for their own skills.
