🌍Location: Hybrid mode (Toronto/Montreal in Canada)
ABOUT THE ROLE:
Keyrus North America (NORAM) is seeking a full-time Fabric Data Architect with deep, hands-on expertise in Microsoft Fabric, and other modern cloud data platforms. This is a senior, client-facing role that pairs deep engineering expertise with end-to-end architecture ownership-you will model and articulate target-state data architectures, then guide delivery teams through their implementation. If you bring deep technical expertise, enjoy teamwork, and thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment-this is your next move!
At Keyrus, every day is a chance to innovate and make an impact. You will:
Collaborate with clients to understand business objectives and technical requirements, translating them into target-state data architectures and roadmaps that drive value.
Own the architecture of end-to-end data initiatives: design and guide the build of scalable data pipelines, lakehouses, and architectures using Fabric, and other modern tools (Databricks, Snowflake, Azure Data Services, etc.).
Model full end-to-end medallion lakehouse architectures (bronze, silver, gold), articulate them clearly to client stakeholders, and guide their implementation-ensuring scalability, data quality, governance, and performance.
Design and own parameterized ingestion frameworks for batch and near real-time pipelines, including source connectivity across diverse systems (databases, APIs, files, streaming) and on-premises data gateways.
Optimize pipeline and query performance-tuning Spark, partitioning, shortcuts, and incremental loads-to meet SLAs cost-effectively as data volumes scale.
Design and optimize semantic models-star-schema modeling, DirectLake and Import tradeoffs, relationship and DAX optimization, and aggregations-so analytics layers stay performant and scale with the business.
Design, implement, and operate CI/CD pipelines to enable reliable, automated deployments across environments.
Define, promote, and enforce Fabric architecture standards and best practices across engagements.
Provide technical leadership to cross-functional teams-data engineers, analysts, and business stakeholders-mentoring engineers and ensuring delivery aligns to the agreed architecture.
Stay up to date with offerings and emerging technologies, recommending improvements and innovative solutions to meet business needs.
Qualifications:
Bachelor’s in computer science, IT, or related field.
7+ years of experience in data engineering or cloud data roles, including 2+ years in an architecture or technical lead capacity, with proven success in delivering end-to-end solutions.
Deep hands-on Fabric experience, including designing and optimizing end-to-end medallion lakehouses, pipeline performance tuning, ingestion framework design, and semantic model optimization, plus strong expertise in at least 1 of the following: Databricks, Snowflake, Azure Data Factory.
Strong command of data warehouse, lakehouse, and modern cloud data architecture patterns, including connectivity and integration across hybrid, on-premises, and cloud sources
Proven client-facing experience, with the ability to articulate and defend an architecture to senior client stakeholders and guide their teams through implementation, including the ability to push back constructively
Excellent communication skills, able to explain technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Experience working in Agile / Scrum delivery environments
