Position Overview:
We are looking for a forward thinking 10+ Years Data Architect, who is visionary to pioneer the engineering and orchestration of an enterprise-scale, Self-Healing Data Fabric. In this high-impact

Mandatory Technical:

• Advanced Semantic Engineering: Comprehensive mastery of semantic web standards, including RDF, OWL, and SHACL, for building ontology-first structural data models alongside SPARQL for context-aware graph reasoning.
• Policy-as-Code Compliance: Production-grade deployment experience utilizing Open Policy Agent (OPA) or equivalent zero-trust policy engines to enforce programmatic, contextual data access control layers.
• Caelum or Amundsen push-events: Alongside DataHubs Actions Framework to drive real-time, event-based data quality xorchestration and automated schema rollbacks
