In this role, you’ll grow your technical expertise, apply best practices, and use tools to design databases and query databases, create data models, document and visualize as‑is architecture to inform to‑be architecture. You’ll guide your team as it designs, defines, develops, and tests cloud solution components, and you’ll serve as a liaison between clients and developers to ensure that requirements are met and solutions are delivered.
