Key Responsibilities
- Architecture ownership — define the end-to-end solution architecture across Ingest, Entity Resolution Engine and Serve workspaces on Microsoft Fabric;
produce solution blueprints, architecture diagrams and integration patterns.
- Entity ontology & canonical model — design the entity ontology, canonical data model, attribute and provenance model, and the identifier spine
- Entity resolution strategy — define the matching approach: deterministic rules on shared identifiers, blocking strategy for candidate generation, probabilistic scoring features, confidence banding and survivorship rules.
- Graph architecture — design the graph schema (nodes, edges, properties), define relational-to-graph projection logic, model entity/ownership/affiliation relationships, and design incremental re-projection on CDC.
- Platform decisions — evaluate and select the graph and vector platform approach (Fabric-native Graph vs alternatives), with a supporting capacity, performance and cost model.




- Performance & capacity design — design Spark pool configuration and workspace/capacity strategy for compute-intensive resolution workloads;
optimise Delta file sizes, partitioning and pipeline efficiency.
- Standards & governance — define data access policies (RBAC, Fabric security roles), data quality rules, metadata standards and naming/versioning conventions.
- Design assurance — review deliverables including code, models, pipelines and graph schemas;
mentor engineers and ensure alignment to architectural standards.
- Client engagement — present and defend architecture decisions to WK stakeholders and Microsoft;
support technical discovery and design workshops.
