  • Collaborate with Data Analytics, Application Subject Matter Expert ('SMEs'), Infrastructure/Networking, and InfoSec on data modeling, connectivity, network paths (e.g., ExpressRoute), and secure vendor integrations.
  • Create and maintain current system documentation, standard operating procedures ('SOPs'), and architecture/runbook diagrams; train peers and provide knowledge transfers.
