Systango is a technology company listed on the NSE, delivering innovative digital solutions across Generative AI, AI/ML, Data Engineering, Analytics, Blockchain/Web3, Cloud, and FinTech. We partner with global clients to build scalable, secure, and high-performance technology solutions.

Role Overview

We are looking for an experienced Data Architect with strong expertise in Snowflake/Databricks to design and lead the implementation of scalable, cloud-native data platforms. The ideal candidate will combine deep technical expertise in modern data architecture with hands-on experience in data engineering, cloud ecosystems, data governance, and enterprise data strategy.
You will work closely with engineering teams, business stakeholders, and client-facing teams to translate business requirements into robust data architectures that support analytics, reporting, and AI/ML use cases.


Key Responsibilities

  • Data Architecture: Define end-to-end data architecture, including data lakes, lakehouses, modern data warehouses, data marts, and enterprise data platforms.
  • Snowflake & Databricks: Design and optimize data solutions using Snowflake OR Databricks, selecting appropriate architectural patterns based on business and technical requirements.
  • Data Engineering: Architect scalable batch and streaming pipelines, ETL/ELT workflows with medallion architecture, data transformations using dbt, and orchestration frameworks.
  • Cloud Platforms: Design data solutions on AWS, Azure, or GCP, integrating cloud storage, compute, security, and networking services.
  • Data Modelling: Define conceptual, logical, and physical data models, including dimensional modelling, Data Vault 2.0, and normalized data structures.
  • Performance & Cost Optimization: Optimize query performance, compute utilization, storage, workload management, and overall platform costs.
  • Data Governance & Security: Establish standards for data quality, lineage, metadata management, access control, encryption, privacy, and regulatory compliance.
  • Architecture Standards: Define reusable architecture patterns, engineering best practices, coding standards, CI/CD processes, and data platform design principles.
  • Technical Leadership: Mentor data engineers and technical leads, conduct architecture reviews, and guide teams through complex technical decisions.
  • Stakeholder Collaboration: Work with product owners, business stakeholders, and clients to understand requirements and communicate architectural decisions effectively.
  • AI & Analytics Enablement: Build data foundations that support BI, advanced analytics, machine learning, and Generative AI applications, including RAG and vector search use cases where applicable.


Required Skills & Experience

  • 10–15 years of experience in data engineering, data architecture, or enterprise data platforms.
  • Strong hands-on expertise in Snowflake/Databricks, including architecture, implementation, optimization, and production-scale deployments.
  • Excellent proficiency in SQL and Python, with experience in PySpark and distributed data processing.
  • Strong understanding of modern data architecture patterns, including lakehouse, data warehouse, data lake, and medallion architecture.
  • Proven experience designing enterprise-grade ETL/ELT pipelines and scalable data integration frameworks.
  • Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, or GCP.
  • Strong understanding of data modelling, dimensional modelling, Data Vault, and data warehouse design principles.
  • Must have strong hands-on experience with Kafka, real-time data streaming, event-driven architectures, and high-throughput distributed data processing.
  • Experience with orchestration tools such as Airflow, Azure Data Factory, or equivalent platforms.
  • Familiarity with data governance, data quality frameworks, lineage, metadata management, and enterprise security.
  • Experience with Git, CI/CD, infrastructure as code, and automated data deployment practices.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead architecture discussions, mentor engineers, and make sound technical decisions.
  • Proven experience building and mentoring Data Engineering teams, including junior engineers, through technical guidance, code reviews, and best-practice implementation.
  • Must hold at least one valid Snowflake or Databricks certification.
  • Must have hands-on experience designing and optimizing production data platforms processing petabytes of data.
  • Excellent communication, problem-solving, and stakeholder management skills.

Good to Have

  • Experience with dbt, Delta Lake, Unity Catalog, Snowflake Dynamic Tables, or Snowpark.
  • Knowledge of Kafka, Spark Structured Streaming, or other real-time data processing technologies.
  • Experience with data mesh, domain-driven data architecture, or multi-tenant data platforms.
  • Experience building data platforms for AI/ML, GenAI, feature engineering, and vector search.
  • Exposure to FinTech, payments, financial services, or other data-intensive industries.

What Success Looks Like

  • Designing scalable, secure, and cost-efficient data platforms aligned with business objectives.
  • Establishing architecture standards that improve data reliability, quality, and engineering productivity.
  • Enabling faster delivery of analytics, reporting, and AI-driven solutions.
  • Providing technical direction and raising the overall architecture and engineering maturity of the team.
