[Hiring] Data Platform Architect @BairesDev

Role Description

Data Platform Architect – Azure & Snowflake at BairesDev

In this role, you'll take a greenfield Azure and Snowflake environment to a production-grade managed platform, replacing manual, ad hoc automation with modern, reliable infrastructure. Owning security and architecture decisions end to end, you'll work side by side with investment professionals, where client-facing communication matters as much as technical depth.

• Set up Snowflake greenfield environments, including accounts, warehouses, RBAC, masking, and row-level security.
• Design access architecture using Entra ID and managed identity.
• Build event-driven ingestion pipelines, including change-triggered extraction, queues, and webhooks.
• Own security posture and architecture decisions in a regulated environment.
• Work directly with investment professionals as the client-facing technical authority.

• Strong expertise in Azure data architecture.
• Hands-on experience with Azure managed data services, including Microsoft Fabric, Data Factory, Functions, and ADLS Gen2.

Requirements

• Familiarity with Claude Code, Cowork skills, or MCP connectors.
• Experience with unstructured data lake design for document corpora.
• Background designing portable architecture that avoids vendor lock-in.
• Experience with entity resolution and master data matching.
• Familiarity with Microsoft Graph API, including SharePoint permissions.
• Experience with Snowflake Cortex or dbt.
