Data architects lead the design and implementation of data collection, storage, transformation, orchestration (movement) and consumption to achieve optimum value from data. They are the technical leaders within data delivery teams. They play a key role in modeling data for optimal reuse, interoperability, security and accessibility as well as in the design of efficient ingestion and transformation pipelines.  They ensure data accessibility through a performant, cost-effective consumption layer that supports use by citizen developers, data scientists, AI, and application integration.  And they instill trust through the employment of data quality frameworks and tools. The data architect at Chevron predominantly works within the Azure Data Analytics Platform, but they are not limited to it.  The data architect is responsible for optimizing costs for delivering data.  They are also responsible for ensuring compliance to enterprise standards and are expected to contribute to the evolution of those standards resulting from changing technologies and best practices.
