Own platform cost modelling and FinOps governance, defining cost allocation patterns and identifying optimisation opportunities. Align with the Data Senior Solution Architect and Data Solution Architects to ensure consistency with enterprise data architecture and models. Translate architectural direction into practical engineering guidance for Data Platform Engineers and Data Engineers, ensuring teams can implement within defined standards without requiring bespoke architectural intervention for standard use cases. Design data ingestion architecture (batch, micro-batch, and streaming) with clear boundaries for system-to-system integration. Define architecture for the semantic layer and self-serve analytics infrastructure. Provide input to data squads for complex data products and support Data Product Managers and Data Engineers where architectural complexity requires it. Ensure architecture supports emerging requirements, including agentic AI data infrastructure, MLOps productionisation, and advanced analytics. Collaborate with the Senior Manager, Data Platform Engineering (within the Enterprise Platforms & Operations team) to ensure platform operations are aligned to the target architecture, providing feedback on feasibility and translating architectural decisions into implementable guidance. Collaborate with the Senior Manager, Data Engineering (within the Enterprise Data team) to ensure data engineering work follows defined patterns and standards.

Contribute to enterprise architecture governance forums, representing data platform considerations in broader technology decisions. Provide architectural input to vendor and tooling decisions, evaluating technology options and providing recommendations for platform evolution. Maintain comprehensive documentation of design decisions, patterns, standards, and trade-offs. Define non-functional platform architecture standards covering resilience, backup/restore, disaster recovery, observability, service levels, auditability and operational readiness. Define platform security and privacy architecture in partnership with Cyber Security and Data Governance, including PII handling, access recertification, audit logging and retention patterns. Establish architecture decision records, exception/waiver processes and design scorecards so deviations from platform standards are visible, time-bound and governed. Maintain platform adoption, performance, cost and standards-compliance metrics, using them to guide roadmap priorities and architecture governance decisions. PERSONAL PROFILE Deep expertise in Databricks (Unity Catalog, Delta Lake, Spark, Databricks SQL) or equivalent Lakehouse platforms, including administration, cost management, and performance optimisation. Strong understanding of cloud-native architecture principles, cost models, and practical experience with CI/CD pipelines and environment strategies. Proven implementation of data security (encryption, RBAC, column/row-level security, data masking). Strong understanding of ingestion and pipeline architecture patterns for diverse source systems. Experience with SAP data landscapes (BW, Datasphere, S/4HANA data flows) is highly desirable given the Burberry technology estate. Experience defining architectural standards and patterns that engineering teams implement and comfortable setting direction without hands-on delivery. Experience working within a centralised architecture function that engages flexibly with delivery squads. Ability to communicate architectural decisions to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Experience establishing architectural authority in environments transitioning from outsourced to in-house ownership is beneficial.
