What impact you will make

  • Discuss technical solutions with the development team, communicate goals and facilitate execution;
  • Work with the product team to identify and build scalable data pipelines for consumption by downstream clients;
  • Work with end users to optimize their SQL queries and gather feedback on existing data models for either improvements or new procedures;
  • Build and maintain automation for various user management, data lineage and compliance needs;
  • Build and maintain data cleansing and any associated master data;
  • Create monitoring and KPIs for data pipelines;
