Job Description:

The Studio Technology group at Walt Disney Studios empowers filmmakers, analysts, and business partners with scalable, secure, and innovative data solutions. As part of the Data Services team, you will shape how the Studio builds, organizes, and delivers data — from financial systems to marketing analytics to consumer engagement products. We are looking for a Lead Data Architect whose primary passion is data modeling and data architecture, not software architecture. This person lives and breathes semantic models, dimensional design, medallion-layer structuring, and data-as-a-product principles. The ideal candidate is doing this work hands-on today and has done it consistently in recent roles — this is their core craft, not an adjacent skill.

Job Responsibility:

  • Partner with business stakeholders and product managers to understand data requirements and translate them into scalable data strategies and architecture
  • Design and own semantic models, dimensional models, entity definitions, and medallion-layer data structures (Bronze/Silver/Gold)
  • Determine what gets built where and why, ensuring consistent modeling patterns across projects and data domains
  • Define and implement data-as-a-product approaches, including domain boundaries, ownership models, SLAs, and documentation standards
  • Work closely with data engineers to guide how assets should be built, structured, and optimized
  • Establish and maintain data standards, governance practices, naming conventions, and documentation for modeling and architecture
  • Provide technical leadership on data modeling best practices across teams, including coaching junior members
  • Evaluate modern data technologies and recommend tools that improve modeling consistency, performance, and quality
  • Collaborate with analytics, BI, and data science teams to design models that support reporting, ML/AI workloads, and cross-domain analytics

Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or related field
  • 10+ years of experience in data architecture or data modeling, with recent roles focused heavily on modeling as your primary responsibility
  • Deep expertise in: Semantic modeling
  • Dimensional modeling
  • Medallion layer concepts
  • Data warehousing methodologies
  • Expert-level SQL (complex queries, optimization, model validation)
  • Strong experience defining data structures, conceptual/logical/physical models, and governing modeled assets
  • Background in large-scale, enterprise-grade data ecosystems

Nice to have:

  • Hands-on experience with one or more modern cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP)
  • Experience modeling within modern data platforms such as: Snowflake
  • Databricks
  • Azure Synapse
  • Demonstrated experience designing data products, domain-driven models, or distributed data architectures
  • Experience in media, studio technology, entertainment, or similarly complex data domains
What we offer:
  • medical
  • vision
  • dental
  • life and disability insurance
  • 401(k) plan
