- Proven experience as a Solution Architect within cloud, data or analytics platforms
- Strong experience designing end-to-end data solutions from ingestion through to consumption
- Deep expertise with Snowflake
- Strong understanding of modern integration approaches including APIs, event-driven architectures and data pipelines
- Exposure to tools such as dbt, data catalogues, lineage tooling, CI/CD or DevSecOps practices would be beneficial
