As a Manager and Senior Architect on our Data Modernization & Analytics team within the AI & Data practice, you own the architecture and delivery quality of Deloitte's most complex master data and data engineering engagements. You are the person client leadership calls when the design is contested, the vendor lands are shifting, or the program needs a decisive hand at the tiller.

What will your typical day look like?

In this role, you will:

• Own end-to-end MDM, RDM and data integration architectures across multiple domains - Party (customer, member, employee), Product, Location, Asset, Reference - and across regulated industries including Financial Services, Public Sector, Energy, Life Sciences and Consumer.

• Serve as trusted architecture advisor to CDOs, CIOs, Chief Data Architects and Enterprise Architecture Boards; translate business strategy into governed reference architectures and defensible platform decisions.
• Own architectural quality gates on multi-workstream programs - domain model governance, matching and survivorship strategy, event-driven vs. batch trade-offs, HA/DR posture, data residency, PII tokenization, observability, and cost-to-serve.
• Set delivery standards for match/merge tuning, stewardship workflow design, data quality frameworks, publication SLAs and steward operating models.
• Author enterprise-grade points of view, reference architectures, whitepapers and accelerators that scale beyond a single engagement and become firm IP.
• Lead pursuit teams for MDM and Data Modernization opportunities - shape the win theme, author the technical response, orally defend the proposal, and mobilize the team on award.
• Build and mentor a bench of MDM Solution Architects, Senior Consultants and Consultants; own performance conversations, capability planning and career trajectory.
• Represent Deloitte in the market - speaking engagements, vendor advisory boards, industry councils, and university recruiting.
