Data Architect (Contractor)

This is a high-impact, short-term contract role focused on designing and delivering a unified data and analytics platform that consolidates fragmented music industry data into a single, queryable system. You will define the architecture that connects revenue, royalties, audience, and operational datasets into a coherent BigQuery-based warehouse. The role requires deep expertise in data modeling, system integration, and entity resolution across complex, inconsistent sources. You will work closely with engineers, business stakeholders, and executives to translate business definitions into scalable data structures. A key focus will be resolving conflicting data across platforms and establishing trusted metrics and governance rules. This role is highly collaborative and requires strong architectural ownership in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment. It is ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex integration challenges at scale.
