- Lead technical scoping and solutioning for requirements from Accounting, FP&A;, Internal Audit, and Procurement teams
- Serve as the primary technical point of contact during financial close, ensuring data accuracy and timely resolution of pipeline issues
- Partner with IT and Engineering on new system integrations, providing detailed technical requirements and leading UAT

What We Look For

- 12+ years of experience in data engineering, analytics engineering, or finance systems, with a track record of owning complex, production-grade pipelines end-to-end
- Deep proficiency in SQL and Python; hands-on experience with Apache Spark and the Databricks platform
- Experience building and maintaining ELT/ETL pipelines from financial source systems (NetSuite, Salesforce, Stripe, Zuora, or similar) into a centralised data lake
- Strong understanding of core finance and accounting concepts, including close processes, revenue recognition, intercompany, chart of accounts, and financial reporting
