We are seeking a strategic and detail-oriented Retail Data Architect / Data Modeler to drive the design and governance of scalable, high-performing data models that power retail insights across our global business. This role is critical to enabling data-driven decision-making across domains such as sales, pricing, inventory, POS, eCommerce, promotions, and supply chain.

He/She will collaborate cross-functionally with data engineers, analysts, and global business stakeholders to ensure our data assets are well-structured, governed, and aligned with corporate objectives. You will also be a key contributor to Opella’s enterprise data governance strategy — maintaining strong documentation, lineage, and stewardship standards.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the design and standardization of enterprise data models across core retail and CPG domains, including pricing, sales, inventory, promotions, loyalty, POS, and eCommerce — ensuring models are scalable, governed, and aligned with global analytics strategies.

• Define and evolve dimensional, star, and Data Vault schema architectures to support self-service analytics, Retail/CPG KPI tracking, and cross-functional reporting across business units and markets.

• Serve as the data modeling authority for retail and CPG analytics, promoting semantic consistency, harmonized definitions, and reusability across Opella’s global functions, affiliates, and syndicated data partners.

• Collaborate with global commercial, supply chain, and finance teams to translate complex business KPIs and performance metrics into formalized data structures, canonical views, and shared metadata.

• Establish and maintain logical and physical data models, reference architectures, and enterprise-wide semantic layers to support consumption by BI tools, data products, and AI/ML applications.

• Contribute to and enforce data governance best practices, including data dictionary maintenance, lineage tracking, model documentation, and coordination with data stewards across regions.

• Oversee model lifecycle management, version control, and change impact analysis for high-priority subject areas within the retail and CPG data landscape.

• Partner with data platform and engineering teams to ensure architectural patterns are implemented with performance, scale, and maintainability in mind — without directly owning pipeline development.

• Act as a strategic advisor on data architecture decisions, guiding alignment across Opella’s evolving ecosystem of data products, global platforms, and business initiatives.

Qualifications

Must-Have:

• 6-10 years of experience in data architecture, data modeling, or analytics engineering, ideally in retail or CPG sectors.

• Expertise in building ELT pipelines and semantic layers using DBT and Snowflake.

• Strong foundation in dimensional modeling, data warehousing, and schema design for large-scale analytics.

• Proven experience in implementing and enforcing enterprise data governance frameworks.

• Strong SQL and experience with retail datasets such as sales, pricing, POS, inventory, and loyalty.

• Ability to work with global, cross-functional teams in a matrixed environment.

Nice-to-Have:

• Exposure to data mesh, data product thinking, or domain-oriented data architectures.

• Understanding of retailer-syndicated data (IRI, Nielsen, Circana, etc.).

Preferred Education

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Data Engineering, or a related field.

• A Master’s degree or cloud certifications (e.g., SnowPro, AWS Data Analytics) is a plus.
