Solution Architect Data Marketplace

Shape trusted data access through secure and scalable Data Marketplace solutions across organisational domains.

You & your role

Shape the architecture of Rabobanks Data Marketplace and Data Catalog as a Solution Architect Data Marketplace. You translate business needs into secure, scalable solutions and a clear architectural roadmap.

In practice, you guide delivery teams, align product, engineering, governance and business stakeholders, and assess new technology through structured research and proofs of concept.

Examples from practice

• Define how colleagues can discover, understand and request access to trusted data.
• Assess how artificial intelligence can improve search, recommendations and automation responsibly.
• Help delivery teams resolve architectural risks, dependencies and technical debt without slowing delivery.

Facts & figures

• 36 hours per week.
• Over 48,000 Rabobank colleagues worldwide.

Top 3 responsibilities

• Own and develop the architectural vision and roadmap for Data Marketplace and Data Catalog capabilities.
• Evaluate emerging technology using transparent criteria, structured research and evidence from proofs of concept.
• Coach engineers and multidisciplinary teams in implementing architectural decisions and increasing their architectural capability.

You balance long-term architectural direction with short-term delivery. You make risks and trade-offs transparent and support security, privacy, compliance and technology-risk requirements throughout the solution lifecycle.
