POSITION PURPOSE:

The Senior Information Architect will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining scalable, efficient, and well-documented data models that support analytical, operational, and reporting needs across CIM's $35B+ portfolio spanning real estate equity, infrastructure, and private credit investments.

This role will establish data modeling standards and techniques from the ground up, developing and managing detailed data models deployed across Databricks Lakehouse as the primary platform, with integration to Snowflake and MongoDB for specific use cases. The Senior Information Architect will play a foundational role in building enterprise data architecture capabilities where mature standards do not yet exist.

This highly collaborative role requires extensive partnership with business stakeholders across Fund Accounting, FP&A, Investor Relations, Sales, and Investments teams to understand data requirements and translate them into robust, high-performing data models. The Senior Information Architect will shape the enterprise data landscape, supporting analytics, governance, and operational data needs across Azure and modern data ecosystems.
