Job Description

Our customer's Campaign & Data Enablement team is seeking a Solution Architect to quickly assess a complex, disconnected ecosystem of marketing/campaign data processes and tools. This person will drive current-state assessment, future-state design, and a recommended roadmap to consolidate, automate, and standardize workflows—enabling a Data Engineer to execute the build.
Responsibilities
• Lead current-state discovery across disconnected tools, data sources, and processes
• Facilitate working sessions with business and technical stakeholders to identify:
o pain points, manual steps, inefficiencies, and gaps
o target capabilities and future-state vision
• Produce a recommended architecture and delivery plan, including:
o data/process flows
o integration approach
o standardization and automation opportunities
o governance/process agreements and operating model suggestions
• Define implementation-ready requirements for the Data Engineer (handoff artifacts)
• Provide tool/technology guidance based on existing stack (SAS, cloud, data science tools, campaign platforms)
(What Success Looks Like)
• Current-state map of systems/processes and key gaps
• Future-state architecture recommendation with phased roadmap
• Implementation plan + requirements package enabling build execution
• Clear prioritization of automation/consolidation opportunities with estimated effort
