# Job Summary:

The Infrastructure AI and Data program is a cornerstone initiative designed to transform how our Global Business Unit (GBU) manages, governs, and leverages data to drive innovation and operational excellence. As we scale digital capabilities across complex engineering and delivery environments, the ability to harness data effectively is critical to enabling advanced analytics, AI-driven insights, and seamless collaboration across diverse stakeholders.

The **Data Solutions Architect** will play a pivotal role in shaping the Unified Data Platform (UDP) built on Azure Databricks; the data foundation that underpins this transformation. This position is not just about building pipelines—it’s about architecting a robust, scalable, and secure data ecosystem that empowers decision-making and accelerates AI adoption across the business. By integrating heterogeneous data sources into a unified lakehouse architecture and ensuring governance at every layer, this role will help unlock the full potential of data for predictive analytics, machine learning, and digital delivery solutions.

Operating within the PIIM (Project Innovation & Information Management) functional team and reporting to the Innovation & AI Manager, the Data Solutions Architect also engages closely with functional SME’s within the Infrastructure GBU (e.g. Engineering, Construction, Estimating) to understand the data requirements of the business.

If you are passionate about designing modern data platforms, enabling AI-driven workflows, and influencing the future of infrastructure delivery through data innovation, this is your opportunity to make a lasting impact
