📋 Description

• Define and own enterprise-wide data architecture and modeling standards. • Design conceptual, logical, and physical data models across our core business domains. • Build our modern data platform – pipelines, lakehouse/warehouse layers, and medallion-architected datasets. • Create scalable, AI-ready data environments that support analytics, data products, and future AI/ML initiatives. • Partner with engineers, analytics teams, and business stakeholders to ensure data is reliable, reusable, and secure. • Implement strong data governance, observability, and cataloging to enable true self-service and support data mesh principles. • Drive strategic technical decisions, influencing platform and tooling choices with a modern, cloud-native mindset. • Translate complex data and AI concepts into simple, compelling narratives for non-technical audiences. • Advise on emerging AI architectures, including RAG patterns and enterprise AI agents. • Shape a healthy, modern, future-proof data environment from the ground up – without technical debt.

🎯 Requirements

• Bring 8+ years of experience in data architecture, data modeling, or analytics engineering. • Have strong hands-on experience with modern data platforms and modeling techniques, as well as cloud platforms (GCP, AWS, Azure) and tools like Databricks, BigQuery, Redshift, or Snowflake. • Know how to build data warehouses, lakehouses, pipelines, and large-scale data ecosystems. • Understand how to design AI-ready data foundations that support analytics and ML. • Are familiar with medallion architecture, data governance, observability, and data catalogs. • Act as a decisive technical expert who can guide senior engineers and influence architectural direction. • Communicate exceptionally well, using storytelling to simplify complex topics. • Feel comfortable shaping standards, and best practices from scratch. • Stay curious about things like RAG, enterprise AI agents, and modern data architecture patterns. • Care about security, responsible data practices, and maintaining a high quality bar. • Operate as a self-starter with an ownership mindset, able to establish architecture and modeling practices with minimal oversight. • Have a great command of English and Polish (both written & spoken). • Are flexible around the afternoons – we prioritize everyone’s personal time and work-life fit, but since we work in PL-US teams, occasional evening meetings may be necessary to ensure smooth communication across time zones. • (Nice to have) Bring experience from large organizations with mature architecture teams or from insurance.
