  1. Lead enterprise-scale data, application, and platform migration initiatives across cloud and modern data ecosystems
  2. Conduct discovery and assessment sessions with Business Units, SMEs, and IT stakeholders to understand current-state systems and migration requirements
  3. Assess ETL/ELT pipelines, BI/reporting assets, databases, enterprise applications, and cloud platforms to define migration scope and strategy
  4. Drive migration planning activities including dependency analysis, process-to-object mapping, complexity assessment, and wave-based execution planning
  5. Define and recommend migration approaches such as Rehost (Lift-and-Shift), Replatform, Refactor/Modernization, and Retire/Replace
  6. Collaborate with Enterprise Architects, Cloud Architects, Data Engineers, and Analytics teams to align migration roadmaps with target-state architecture
  7. Ensure migration readiness by coordinating testing, validation, cutover planning, and implementation governance
  8. Provide technical leadership and strategic guidance on cloud modernization, data modernization, and migration best practices
  9. Track risks, dependencies, and project milestones while maintaining clear communication with business and technical stakeholders
  10. Support solution planning, effort estimation, and implementation readiness activities for migration programs

Requirements

  • 10+ years of experience in data, application, or platform migration programs
  • Strong experience leading enterprise cloud transformation and modernization initiatives
  • Hands-on experience with AWS cloud platform and cloud migration strategies
  • Strong understanding of ETL/ELT tools, BI/reporting platforms, relational databases, and cloud data platforms
  • Experience with migration assessment, dependency analysis, and migration roadmap planning
  • Knowledge of data modernization and lakehouse architectures
  • Background in enterprise architecture or solution design
  • Strong stakeholder management, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills
  • Experience coordinating large-scale migration activities across business and technology teams
  • Self-driven individual with the ability to work independently in fast-paced transformation environments
  • Experience with Agile delivery methodologies and enterprise-scale implementation programs
