Job description

Data Architect

Hybrid / Full Time / Wayne, PA or Portsmouth, NH

At Novocure, we're working to extend the lives of patients battling some of the most aggressive cancers. Every role here contributes to that mission - and as a Data Architect, you'll help shape the future of how data powers our business, drives innovation, and ultimately impacts patient outcomes.

This is an opportunity to influence enterprise-wide strategy, modernize data capabilities, and build the foundation that enables analytics, AI, and digital transformation across a global organization.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We are seeking an experienced and forward-thinking Data Architect to lead the evolution of Novocure's enterprise data architecture.

This is not a traditional SAP-focused architecture role. While SAP S/4HANA serves as a critical component of our technology ecosystem, we are looking for an architect who can think beyond a single platform and design a connected, scalable, and modern enterprise data landscape.

You will help define the architecture strategy that connects SAP, Veeva, cloud platforms, integration technologies, master data solutions, operational data stores, and analytics environments into a cohesive enterprise ecosystem. Your work will help establish trusted data foundations that support business operations, regulatory requirements, advanced analytics, and future AI initiatives.

The ideal candidate has experience building or transforming enterprise data architectures, understands modern cloud and integration patterns, and can translate business needs into scalable technical solutions.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Define and drive Novocure's enterprise data architecture strategy and roadmap
  • Design scalable, secure, and governed data solutions across SAP S/4HANA, Veeva CRM, Veeva Vault, MDM, ODS, and other enterprise platforms
  • Develop enterprise data models, integration patterns, and architecture standards that support operational and analytical workloads
  • Lead architecture decisions related to data governance, quality, metadata management, and master data management
  • Partner with business and technology leaders to identify opportunities to improve data accessibility, consistency, and business value
  • Establish modern architecture principles that support cloud, hybrid, SaaS, and API-driven ecosystems
  • Evaluate emerging technologies and architectural approaches that support AI, advanced analytics, and future business growth
  • Ensure alignment with security, privacy, compliance, and regulatory requirements
  • Provide technical leadership and architectural guidance to engineering, analytics, and application teams
  • Champion enterprise data governance standards and best practices across the organization

ABOUT YOU

You are a modern Data Architect who understands that architecture is about enabling business outcomes - not simply managing systems.

You bring deep expertise in enterprise data architecture and understand how to connect complex technology ecosystems that span ERP, SaaS, cloud, analytics, and integration platforms. While you have strong SAP experience, you are equally comfortable working across cloud-native technologies, integration platforms, and modern data environments.

You have likely helped build or transform enterprise data architecture from the ground up, creating scalable and governed solutions that support both current business needs and future innovation.

You are comfortable influencing senior stakeholders, collaborating across functions, and balancing strategic thinking with practical execution.

Most importantly, you bring curiosity, adaptability, and a passion for solving complex data challenges.

Minimum Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Data Science, or a related field
  • 8+ years of experience in data architecture, enterprise data management, or data integration roles
  • Strong experience with SAP S/4HANA and enterprise data architecture principles
  • Experience designing and implementing enterprise data integration strategies across multiple business systems
  • Deep understanding of data modeling, data governance, MDM, and operational data stores
  • Experience working within complex enterprise application environments
  • Strong communication, stakeholder management, and leadership skills
  • Ability to influence both technical and non-technical audiences

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience building or leading enterprise data architecture initiatives from the ground up
  • Hands-on experience with SAP Data Services (BODS) and SAP S/4HANA integrations
  • Experience with enterprise SaaS platforms such as Veeva CRM, Veeva Vault, Salesforce, or similar solutions
  • Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, and/or Google Cloud Platform
  • Experience with integration and middleware technologies such as MuleSoft or similar platforms
  • Knowledge of modern architecture patterns including API-first design, event-driven architecture, cloud-native solutions, data products, and AI-ready data platforms
  • Experience in pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device, or other regulated industries
  • Familiarity with GDPR, HIPAA, and enterprise data compliance frameworks

HOW YOU'LL WORK

  • Hybrid work model based in Wayne, PA or Portsmouth, NH
  • Partner closely with Enterprise Architecture, Data & Analytics, Business Technology, and business leadership teams
  • Influence enterprise-wide technology and data strategy
  • Work in a collaborative, fast-paced environment focused on innovation and continuous improvement
  • Occasional domestic and international travel as needed

WHAT WE OFFER

This pay range which Novocure expects to pay for this role at the time of this posting is $150,000 - $190,000/yr. This position may also be eligible for an annual bonus and restricted stock unit grant in addition to a full range of benefits. Individual compensation within this range depends on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, prior education and experience, job-related knowledge and skills demonstrated.

ABOUT NOVOCURE:

Novocure is a company with a powerful mission, to extend the lives of people living with some of the most aggressive forms of cancer. Here your work will have a direct impact on patients and those who care about them.  Join a team of passionate, collaborative people who support each other, challenge one another, and innovate together. Here, you'll connect, grow, and make a real difference. We're a company with the drive of a startup and the strength that comes with 25 years of success.

Novocure operates at a rare crossroad, where advanced medical technology converges with cutting-edge biotechnology. We are the only company to develop and commercialize Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields), a proprietary, groundbreaking therapy designed to disrupt cancer cell division.
