Job Description: The Senior Data Engineer serves as the Data Architecture & Integrity Assessment Lead responsible for evaluating enterprise data environments and identifying risks associated with legacy data management during modernization initiatives. This role supports a structured 16-week technical assessment with an optional follow up implementation phase focused on strengthening existing data practices, identifying system dependencies, and ensuring data integrity throughout the modernization lifecycle. Element's approach prioritizes data reliability and operational continuity over large-scale redesign. Rather than introducing unnecessary transformation layers, this role focuses on strengthening current data management practices, identifying integrity risks, and sequencing improvements that support coexistence between legacy and modern systems.
Key Responsibilities
Evaluating applications and data environments against data architecture best practices and risk mitigation strategies for managing legacy data throughout the modernization lifecycle.
Analyzing and documenting data dependencies that impact system decoupling, modularization, and coexistence strategies.
Identifying data integrity risks within current systems, databases, and operational workflows.
Assessing data flow patterns, database relationships, and integration points across interconnected applications.
Documenting existing data management practices and identifying opportunities to strengthen reliability and governance.
Collaborating with infrastructure and architecture teams to ensure data considerations are integrated into stabilization and modernization planning.
Producing clear findings and recommendations as part of the 16-week technical assessment deliverables.
Leading the implementation of approved data management improvements in Phase 2, ensuring changes enhance reliability while preserving operational continuity.
