In this role...

At Ford, we are transforming our data ecosystem to operate with a modern Data paradigm, treating data and platform capabilities as first-class, secure, and versioned products. As a Staff Data Platform and Products Architect, you will design the foundation that empowers data engineers, data scientists, and application developers to easily ingest, transform, and securely consume high-quality data.

In this high-impact, individual contributor role, you will lead the transition toward a product-centric data architecture. You will be responsible for defining the technical roadmap and establishing the architectural guardrails for our next-generation cloud infrastructure. This role requires an architect who can navigate complex technical infrastructure—including event-driven architectures, real-time streaming, API development, containerized microservices, schema-first governance, and automated GitOps/CI/CD—while championing developer experience (DevEx) and keeping platform decisions aligned with strategic business priorities. If you are passionate about building highly optimized developer platforms and driving technical excellence, this is the role for you.
