The Data Architect designs data flows, defines standards, ensures data quality, and collaborates on data strategies while integrating advanced technologies.
Data Engineer/ Data Architect
Data Architects define standards and design the flow of data throughout both the enterprise and the external ecosystem (customers, channels, etc.). They work closely with users, systems designers, and developers on a delivery team. They have an end-to-end vision, to see how a logical design will translate into one or more databases and recognize how data will flow through the successive stages involved. Data Architects address issues of data migration (including validation, clean-up, and mapping), and understand the importance of data dictionaries.
