Original job description

Data Architect (Azure)

6-Month Contract

Greater Toronto Area - Markham, ON

Hybrid, 4 days onsite

Start: ASAP

We're partnering with a large Canadian organization that's in the middle of a major technology modernization, moving legacy systems onto modern, cloud-based platforms. They need a hands-on Data Architect to design a data architecture on Azure that's scalable, secure and well governed, and that supports analytics, reporting and emerging AI work.

What you'll do

Design and own the target state data architecture across a hybrid Azure environment, connecting on-premises systems to the cloud over ExpressRoute
Define data models, integration patterns and data flows that move information from legacy platforms to modern Azure services, including Azure SQL Database
Work with business stakeholders to turn data and reporting needs into technical designs
Guide development and engineering teams on how to use Azure data services well
Set secure-by-design standards for data platforms, including access through Entra ID, secrets management in Key Vault, encryption in transit and at rest, and least-privilege controls
Turn data governance and configuration standards into Azure Policy to audit and enforce compliance
Define data architecture standards that support GenAI, MLOps pipelines and LLM integrations
Make sure third-party data integrations meet identity and security requirements (SSO, MFA, SCIM) and comply with standards such as SOC 2 and GDPR
Help optimize data platform costs and set up monitoring for IaaS and PaaS data workloads
Create and maintain architecture diagrams, data models, standards and operational documentation

What you bring

8+ years in data architecture, data engineering or a related field, including time designing enterprise data solutions on Azure
Strong knowledge of Azure data services, especially Azure SQL Database, and of data modeling (conceptual, logical and physical)
Experience in hybrid Azure environments that include Microsoft 365 and Entra ID/Active Directory
Experience with Azure DevOps CI/CD and Infrastructure as Code (Bicep) for data platform deployments, plus PowerShell scripting
Solid understanding of cloud networking, security and compliance as they relate to data
Exposure to AI/ML data pipelines and GenAI use cases
Strong communication skills and confidence guiding technical teams and engaging stakeholders
A Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, IT or a related field
Azure certifications (such as DP-203, DP-600 or AZ-305) are an asset, and experience with AWS or GCP is a plus
