• Optimize queries and data structures for performance and cost efficiency.

Data Quality & Governance* Establish and enforce data quality standards, validation checks, and monitoring to ensure accuracy and consistency.

• Document data lineage, transformation logic, and schema definitions for transparency and governance.
• Partner with stakeholders to define data contracts, naming conventions, and architectural standards.
• Build reusable frameworks and patterns that improve consistency across datasets.

Analytics Enablement* Collaborate with BI analysts and data scientists to understand requirements and deliver clean, structured datasets.

• Support the creation of core dimensional models and analytics-ready tables that enable self-service reporting.
• Provide technical guidance on data usage, best practices, and troubleshooting to analytics team members.
• Balance platform-level work with responsiveness to evolving business analytics needs.

Automation & AI-Assisted Workflows* Use AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude) to accelerate development, documentation, code review, and troubleshooting.

• Leverage low-code/no-code automation tools (e.g., Zapier, Make, or similar) to streamline data workflows and integrations where appropriate.
• Identify opportunities to reduce manual effort through smart automation while maintaining data quality and governance standards.
• Build pragmatic solutions that balance technical rigor with speed and business impact.

Other* Other duties as assigned by management.

What You Need:* Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Data Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field.

• 3–5 years of experience in data engineering, analytics engineering, or a related role.
• Strong SQL skills with experience writing complex queries, optimizing performance, and designing data models.

• Proficiency in Python for data transformation, automation, and pipeline development.
• Working knowledge of cloud data platforms (e.g., Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, or Databricks).
• Familiarity with data modeling best practices (dimensional modeling, normalization, slowly changing dimensions).
• Understanding of data governance principles including lineage, quality monitoring, and documentation.
• Experience with version control (Git) and CI/CD practices for data workflows.
• Comfort using AI tools to accelerate coding, problem-solving, and documentation.
• Willingness to leverage low-code/no-code tools when they provide practical solutions without compromising data integrity.
