Director IT – Enterprise Data Architecture & Integration

$170000 - $210000 per year | Providence, RI | Hybrid | Permanent

We are working with an established national accounting, tax, and advisory organization with a growing technology environment supporting teams across multiple offices.

The firm is continuing to modernize how data moves across the organization and is looking for a senior technical leader who can take ownership of enterprise data architecture, integration strategy, and development standards.

This is not a pure people-management position. The person coming into this role will serve as a true player-coach, setting architectural direction while remaining close enough to the technology to guide design decisions, solve difficult integration problems, and mentor a distributed development team.

• Own the firm's enterprise data architecture strategy rather than simply maintaining an existing platform
• High-visibility role working across data, applications, automation, and enterprise systems
• Opportunity to influence long-term technology architecture and platform decisions
• Lead and mentor a distributed development and automation team
• Modernize integration architecture across APIs, workflows, data pipelines, and enterprise applications
• Significant exposure to Microsoft Fabric, Azure, automation, and modern data architecture
• Hybrid schedule with approximately three days per week in office
• Strong benefits including medical, dental, vision, 401(k), profit sharing, PTO, parental leave, professional development, and discretionary performance bonus

We are seeking an experienced Senior IT Manager / Enterprise Data Architect & Integration Lead to own the organization's enterprise data architecture strategy while leading integration, development, and automation initiatives.

You will operate at the intersection of enterprise architecture, data engineering, application development, and integration, helping define how data is modeled, governed, moved, accessed, and consumed across the organization.

The right person will have enough architectural depth to design the future-state environment while also being comfortable leading developers, establishing standards, and working directly with business and technology stakeholders.

• Own and evolve the enterprise data architecture strategy across data models, data flows, storage platforms, integrations, and enterprise applications
• Develop a long-term data architecture roadmap aligned with business and technology priorities
• Design and oversee ETL/ELT pipelines, real-time integrations, APIs, and system-to-system connectivity
• Establish standards around data modeling, data lifecycle management, governance, quality, lineage, security, and access
• Define enterprise integration patterns using REST APIs, GraphQL, webhooks, event-driven architecture, and related technologies
• Lead automation initiatives using technologies such as Power Automate, Power Apps, Azure Logic Apps, Python, and Power Shell
• Own and continue maturing the firm's Software Development Lifecycle, including testing, documentation, source control, CI/CD, branching, deployment, and release practices
• Lead and mentor a distributed team of developers while serving as the senior technical escalation point for complex architecture and integration challenges

• 10+ years of experience across enterprise data architecture, software development, data engineering, or systems integration
• Demonstrated experience designing enterprise-scale data architecture and integration solutions
• Strong background in data modeling, database architecture, data pipelines, and ETL/ELT
