Senior Data Solutions Architect

Job Description:

Becoming a Senior Data Solutions Architect at Jet2.com and Jet2holidays will allow you to demonstrate, develop and extend your architecture skills. Working within the data function, you’ll be responsible for data solutions aligned to one of our four initiative pillars. You’ll become a domain expert within your pillar, understanding how the business operates within that area, and building relationships to bridge technical and business areas, becoming a trusted technical ally to the business pillar.

As our Senior Data Solutions Architect, you’ll have access to a wide range of benefits including:
 

• Hybrid working (we’re in the office 3 days per week)
• Generous Discretionary Profit Share Scheme 
• Annual pay reviews

What you’ll be doing:
 

• You’ll be involved with new initiatives as they are defined by the business to understand what a high-level solution might look like, identifying areas where we need to define building blocks or new technology, and allowing high-level estimates to be defined.
• You’ll be able to evaluate technology options and build POCs to support your designs.
• You’ll become a key member of our data architecture forum and wider architecture forum which helps guide technology choices and building blocks across the whole of our logical architecture function.
• You’ll work with our architecture colleagues across data and applications to ensure that simple, effective and future-focused designs are created, with data at the very heart of everything that we do.

While it's important that you understand technical constraints, capabilities and design-patterns, as well as being able to communicate well with technical delivery teams, this role focuses on technology solutions more so than technical delivery. 

What you’ll have:
 

• Previous experience in a technical role with extensive exposure to data; data architect, data engineer, data analyst, software engineer/testing, DevOps engineer, data scientist, or similar relevant experience.
• You are solution-driven and have a strong analytical mindset, combined with creative skills.
• You demonstrate leadership potential with the ability to communicate complex technical concepts to a variety of audiences, both technical and business.
• You have hands-on experience in projects relating to data solutions (data delivery/management, data lake, system integration, data migration, data warehousing experience with cloud-based data platforms).
• You have good data modelling experience - you know how to set up data structures to support a delivery, and can contribute towards opinion on data modelling across the enterprise.
• Sound knowledge on modern data solutions such as data lakes, data platforms, data streaming, and data security best practices.
• General knowledge of cloud native computing, public hyperscalers (Azure, AWS or GCP).
• You show an interest in (new) technologies, methodologies, and concepts such as data governance & management, data mesh, data vault 2.0, delta lake, DWH automation, event streaming.
