Job Description
Agilent instruments produce the measurements behind pharmaceutical quality control, food and environmental testing, and research labs worldwide. That data sits in dozens of software products, and we are building a platform that lets our products, our customers' workflows, and AI agents find and use it wherever it lives.
We are hiring a data architect to own the discovery and access side of that platform: how scientific data is registered and found, and how it is composed and served. The platform architecture is established; the target state for discovery and access, and the path to it, are yours to define.
You work under the Lead Data Architect, who owns cross-service standards and governance. Within your areas,



the architecture decisions are yours; cross-service decisions go to the Lead with evidence, options, and a recommendation.
This is an architecture role with hands-on evidence: you decide the architecture for your areas, stay with engineering through implementation, and read the code, run the queries, and build the proof of concept when an argument needs one.
Your areas:
Data access. Your part of the federated GraphQL gateway, which the platform team owns how connected systems are represented on it, directly or through data services; the read layer that composes results across systems; and the application data services that expose access-controlled views of scientific data to products, workflows, and AI consumers.
Catalog and search. The catalog record model, how connected systems register their data and how that metadata is represented, search over it, and the path to richer indexes like vector and graph.
