  • Cloud Data Transformation: Lead the design and implementation of end-to-end data pipelines, transitioning legacy on-premise SQL workloads into a scalable cloud environment.
  • Lakehouse Architecture & Modeling: Execute a Medallion Architecture to transform raw data into curated datasets for analytics and AI use. You will build the foundational models and establish a comprehensive data dictionary to ensure transparency and adoption by business users.
  • Reliable & Observable Pipelines: Deliver robust data. You will implement proactive monitoring and standardized pipeline patterns to ensure maximum stability.
  • Data Quality & Compliance: Architect and manage data governance to enforce data security, PII masking, and regulatory compliance. You will establish automated data quality with automated alerting on failures.
  • Cross-Functional Support: Partner with teams across the organization to translate business requirements into technical models, occasionally assisting with analytics and reports to meet immediate organizational needs.

  • Modern Data Transport: Proficiency in handling various protocols, including REST APIs and secure file transfers.
  • SQL & Python Expert: Proficiency in Python for automation and advanced data manipulation, paired with expertise in optimizing complex SQL queries.

  • The Builder Mindset: You thrive in environments where you are the first to "lay the bricks" and define the standard for those who follow.
  • Quality Obsessed: You believe that data without governance and observability is just noise; you take pride in the accuracy and lineage of your work.
  • AI-Enhanced Workflow: You stay ahead of the curve by actively leveraging AI tools and LLMs to accelerate development, documentation, and testing processes.
