Data Architect, Digital Regulatory Assurance System (DRAS)

The Government of Alberta is modernizing how it regulates and assures environmental outcomes across the province. The Digital Regulatory Assurance System (DRAS) is central to that work. It supports applications, approvals, compliance, and monitoring activities that protect Alberta’s air, land, water, and biodiversity.

Tri-global is looking for an experienced Data Architect to design and lead data integration between DRAS, our Databricks-based Data Management Platform, and the Alberta Geospatial Platform. You will set the direction for how regulatory, environmental, and spatial data moves, connects, and is governed across these systems. The goal is trusted, timely, and reusable data for regulators, decision-makers, and Albertans.

You will join a high-performing, multidisciplinary team in a fast-paced, agile environment. The team includes developers, data engineers, GIS specialists, business analysts, and product owners.

Architecture and Design:

• Define and maintain the target-state data architecture for integrating DRAS, the Databricks Data Management Platform, and the Alberta Geospatial Platform.
• Design conceptual, logical, and physical data models for regulatory, environmental, and geospatial data domains.
• Establish integration patterns (batch, near-real-time, event-driven, API-based, change data capture) suited to each use case.
• Design lakehouse structures on Databricks, including medallion (bronze/silver/gold) layers, Delta Lake tables, and Unity Catalog organization.
• Architect spatial data flows that preserve geometry, coordinate reference systems, and spatial accuracy across platforms.

Integration and Delivery:

• Lead the design of data pipelines and interfaces between systems, working closely with data engineers and developers during build.
• Define data contracts, API specifications, and interface agreements between system owners.
• Resolve complex integration issues involving data quality, schema changes, latency, and system dependencies.
• Take part in agile ceremonies (sprint planning, backlog refinement, reviews) and turn architecture into actionable user stories.

Data Governance, Security, and Quality:

• Embed data governance practices, including metadata management, lineage, data classification, and master and reference data.
• Ensure designs meet Government of Alberta standards for information security, privacy (including Alberta’s access-to-information and privacy legislation), and records management.
• Define data quality rules, validation frameworks, and monitoring approaches across integrated systems.
• Apply role-based access controls and data-sharing…
