## Description

Jij bent niet degene die de pipelines bouwt. Jij bent degene die bepaalt waar ze naartoe moeten lopen, en waarom. Als Senior Data Architect bij Arcady werk je op het hoogste abstractieniveau: datastrategie, platformkeuzes, governance en de verbinding tussen data en bedrijfsdoelstellingen. Je bent de sparringpartner die klanten zoeken als technische keuzes ook strategische consequenties hebben.

Jij denkt in strategische consequenties. Je kunt een MT overtuigen van een architectuurkeuze én twee uur later met een Data Engineer de technische implementatie doorspreken. Die combinatie is zeldzaam. Precies waarom we je zoeken.
