About the role

Be at the heart of data transformation at BRP, driving the architecture for analytics and interfaces—in batch and real time. Grow in a startup-like environment within a global leader, alongside a diverse team of talented individuals, to mature our use of data. As Senior Architect/Data & Analytics Solution Lead, you will help shape the future of our department and, by extension, the entire organization. You will drive technical excellence, mentor your peers, and be a role model in challenging projects that generate high-value insights.

You’ll Have The Opportunity To

  • Architect end-to-end solutions on GCP and/or Snowflake, balancing performance, scalability, costs, and security.
  • Define real-time integration schemas (Apigee X, microservices, Google Pub/Sub) to connect transactional systems (SAP, Salesforce) to analytical and operational applications.
  • Prototype concretely: rapidly develop POCs in Python and Java to validate concepts, then transform these learnings into robust production designs.
  • Guide data solutions, reporting to the Data Solution team lead, and mentor engineers on best practices in interface development, data modeling, ELT/ETL, CI/CD, and DevOps (Bitbucket, Jira).
  • Work closely with Enterprise Architecture to ensure alignment with global standards while introducing innovative tools and approaches.
  • Facilitate and lead design reviews: make informed decisions on schemas, APIs, SLAs, and governance, assuming trade-offs and responsibilities.
  • Promote knowledge sharing and continuous improvement: organize internal training, write clear documentation, and foster a culture of experimentation.

YOU’LL THRIVE IN THIS ROLE IF YOU HAVE THE FOLLOWING SKILLS AND QUALITIES:

  • Master's degree (or equivalent) in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
  • 10+ years of hands-on experience delivering large-scale data and integration solutions, including 3+ years in an architect or technical leadership role.
  • Proven expertise in Snowflake, DBT, and cloud-native architectures (GCP or equivalent).
  • Proficiency in Python and Java, capable of producing both POCs and production code.
  • Solid experience in API design (REST/GraphQL, OAuth) and event-driven architectures (Apigee X, Pub/Sub).
  • Good knowledge of data models (dimensional, Data Vault, CDC/SCD) and data governance best practices.
  • Regular use of CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and infrastructure as code (Bitbucket, Terraform).
  • Excellent communication skills in French and English, comfortable presenting complex architectures to technical and executive audiences.
  • A leader, determined, action-oriented, and passionate about mentoring diverse teams.

What Will Set You Apart...

  • Certifications such as SnowPro Architect, Google Professional Cloud Architect, or TOGAF.
  • Hands-on experience with large-scale integration on SAP or Salesforce.
  • Familiarity with Monte Carlo (data observability) and Collibra (metadata governance).
  • Exposure to real-time analytics, ML pipelines, or semantic modeling in Power BI.
  • Proven success in leading cross-departmental initiatives in a regulated environment.
