Our Team, Your Impact
This section is where we attract the attention of potential candidates and sell the role. How has the role come about? What makes it appealing? What are the key responsibilities?

How You’ll Spend Your Day
•Own the enterprise data architecture blueprint - conceptual, logical and physical models and canonical entities (Product, Molecule, Study, Patient, Site, Batch, Customer, HCP) across the full pharma value chain.
•Drive harmonization at scale - converge master and reference data across business units, eliminating silos, duplication and divergent standards.
•Embed industry standards by design - IDMP, CDISC, HL7 FHIR, ISA-95, GS1 and Allotrope built into the architecture rather than retrofitted.
•Architect the domain and data mesh operating model - define bounded contexts, domain ownership, data products and contracts from Research through Commercial and Enterprise Functions.
•Automate the semantic layer into the platform - partner with Platform Engineering to encode models, metadata, lineage and catalog standards into Databricks Lakehouse, Unity Catalog and the Enterprise Data Marketplace.
•Make data AI-ready - deliver semantically rich, governed and discoverable data products that power analytics, AI/ML and GenAI workloads.
•Set and enforce governance - architectural guardrails, modeling standards, Data Architecture Review Boards, and compliance with GxP, GDPR, HIPAA and 21 CFR Part 11.
•Lead as a trusted advisor - shape enterprise data strategy and transformation roadmaps with business and IT leaders, and mentor modelers, engineers and analysts.

How we calculate "similar"
No black box, no LLM guesswork: a deterministic score built from four normalized attributes. Here's this role's own peer group at different match levels, so you can see the mechanism, not just the result.
Every comparison starts from the same 100-point budget: 25 for working in the same function, 40 for the same therapeutic area, 20 for the same or adjacent seniority, 15 for the same country. A dimension we can't confirm on both sides contributes nothing, never a guess, never a free pass.
0 points, never a partial guess. A role we know almost nothing about beyond its function bottoms out at 25%; it never inflates to 100% just because there's little to compare against. Seniority uses a defined ladder (Associate → Manager → Associate Director → Senior → Principal → Director → Senior Director → Executive/VP) so "Director" and "Senior Director" count as adjacent, but "Director" and "Executive/VP" do not.
