- Blueprint Execution: Work closely with the Tech Lead to translate the Solution Architects high-level ERDs (Entity Relationship Diagram) into optimized physical tables and views.
- Operational Integrity: Refine the CI/CD strategy for data (Git, dbt, or similar) alongside the Tech Lead and DevOps to ensure smooth, zero-downtime deployments from development to production.
What are we looking for
- AI Tooling: Proven experience utilizing AI coding assistants (GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor) to accelerate development and troubleshooting.
- Data Stack: Expert-level proficiency in Python 3.x (data-focused libraries) and advanced SQL (analytical functions, recursive CTEs, query optimization), BigQuery and Dataform are a plus.
- Orchestration: 3+ years of hands-on experience with Apache Airflow (DAG development, operators, sensors).
- Cloud Processing: Strong experience with Google Cloud Dataflow (Apache Beam), Dataproc, Spark, or similar cloud-native processing frameworks.
- Data Concepts: Deep understanding of ELT/ETL patterns, Data Lakehouse architecture, and Reverse ETL strategy.
Soft Skills Qualifications
- Experience: 5+ years in Data Engineering.
- Mentorship: Experience mentoring junior engineers, providing constructive code reviews, and fostering a collaborative team environment.
- Pragmatism: An ability to balance code perfection with business deadlines using AI.
