About this role
We are building our enterprise data platform from the ground up and need a Data Architect to own it.
This is a greenfield, hands-on leadership role - not a consulting engagement. You will define the architecture, make the technology decisions, build the foundation, and be accountable for outcomes. You will report directly to the CTO and partner closely with a Senior Data Engineer on the same hiring cycle.
The platform will serve business analytics, operational reporting, and AI-driven capabilities across multiple markets and enterprise clients. A key deliverable is enabling AI applications and agents to consume trusted enterprise data securely via APIs and Model Context Protocol (MCP).
What You Will Own - Data platform architecture - Data Lake, Lakehouse, semantic layers, and data consumption patterns across structured, semi-structured, and event-based sources.
- Ingestion and transformation pipelines - batch, streaming, and CDC-based, with proper orchestration, observability, and failure handling.
- Data modelling - scalable analytical models covering core business domains: orders, inventory, fulfilment, logistics, marketplaces, billing, and platform performance.
- Business analytics - governed KPI definitions, dashboards, and self-service capabilities that replace manual reporting.
- AI data enablement - architecture for exposing authoritative, governed data to AI agents through MCP and APIs, with appropriate access controls and tenant isolation.
- Data governance and compliance - data quality, lineage, PII classification, and controls that meet enterprise security and privacy obligations across multiple jurisdictions.
- Platform reliability - monitoring, SLAs, incident management, and operational runbooks so the platform runs as a production service.
First 90 days:
- Weeks 1-4: Assess the data landscape, produce an enterprise architecture proposal.
- Weeks 5-8: Deliver the first production pipeline and a priority BI dashboard.
- Weeks 9-12: Define common KPI models for two business domains and deliver the first MCP-based data capability for an AI agent.
6-12 months:
- Production data platform operational with automated pipelines for priority datasets.
- Governed business models and trusted KPI definitions in active use by the business.
- Dashboards live and replacing manual reporting.
- Architecture for secure AI data consumption implemented, with initial MCP capabilities in production.
- Platform operational practices - quality, lineage, monitoring, cost controls - established and running.
- 10+ years across data engineering, data platforms, or data architecture - with real architecture ownership, not just delivery.
- Proven experience designing and building enterprise Data Lake, Warehouse, or Lakehouse platforms.
- Strong SQL, data modelling, pipeline design, and cloud-native (preferably AWS) skills.
- Experience with governance, data quality, lineage, and compliance - including PII and privacy controls.
- Hands-on enough to validate designs and build in the early phase; structured enough to define standards that scale.
- Experience in eCommerce, logistics, marketplace, or B2B SaaS is strongly preferred - the domain is complex and ramp time matters.
Desirable: Practical experience with MCP, LLM/AI integration, semantic layers, RAG, or secure enterprise data access for AI systems.
The Opportunity This is a founding role. The data platform does not yet exist. You will define what good looks like at Anchanto - and build it.
If you are energised by greenfield architecture, comfortable with high ownership, and capable of moving fluently from business question to data pipeline to AI consumption - we want to talk.
