Job Description The Data & Information Architect is accountable for defining and embedding a shared Data & Analytics architecture. This role provides practical architectural guardrails, establishes clear ownership and decision rights for data domains, and enables analytics use cases to be delivered through standard, compliant patterns - without ad-hoc data handling or policy exceptions. You will work across product, platform, and domain teams to ensure data is modelled consistently, governed effectively, and usable for operational, analytical, and advanced analytics use cases.

Responsibilities

Data & Analytics Architecture Define, document, and maintain the target Data & Analytics architecture, covering data domains, ingestion pipelines, analytics layers, and access patterns. Contribute to the definition of architectural guardrails that explain what teams must do—not just what they must avoid.

Requirements

Common Domain & Canonical Modelling Define and govern the Common Domain Model, establishing shared semantic definitions for core maritime concepts such as vessel, seafarer, voyage, cargo, port call, certificate, and contract. Design and evolve a technology-neutral Canonical Data Model (CDM) to standardise data exchange for targeted integrations. Ensure consistency between operational data models and analytical representations to support reporting and advanced analytics.

Ownership, Governance & Decision-Making Establish and document clear ownership and stewardship for data domains, datasets, and analytics platforms. Define decision rights and resolve cross-domain data design conflicts in collaboration with domain and platform leaders. g.
