- Understanding on all key Snowflake services, latest features.
- Define and enforce data quality and testing standards (e.g., dbt tests, schema/contract checks) so downstream teams can trust the data without manual verification.
- Manage infrastructure as code (Terraform) and CI/CD for data pipeline deployments, so changes are reviewed, tested, and rolled out safely.
- Mentor mid-level and junior data engineers on Snowflake, dbt, DCM best practices and code review standards.
- Own incident response and root-cause analysis for pipeline failures and data quality issues, including postmortems.
Qualifications

- Hands-on, production-grade experience with dbt and Terraform/DCM.
- Hands-on experience with at least one cloud-native ETL/ELT tool (e.g., Matillion).
- Advanced SQL and hands-on data modelling experience (dimensional modelling, slowly changing dimensions, or similar).
- Working proficiency in Python for pipeline development and automation.
- Experience with git-based version control and CI/CD pipelines for data engineering workflows.
- Demonstrated experience mentoring other engineers or leading technical design reviews.
Required Skills
- AWS experience, in addition to Azure and GCP.
- Experience in Databricks, BigQuery, Synapse.
- Fivetran experience.
- Experience with streaming/near-real-time data pipelines (e.g., Kafka, Kinesis).

Preferred Skills
- Engage in high-impact projects leveraging cutting-edge AWS cloud technologies.
- Work in a boutique consulting environment that values innovation, quality, and personalized growth.
- Collaborate with passionate experts across data engineering, AI, and product domains.
