• Implement complex transformation logic that accurately reflects defined business rules and reporting requirements.
• Optimize ETL processes for reliability, scalability, and performance.
• Monitor data pipelines and resolve failures or performance issues.

5. Data Quality, Validation, and Troubleshooting

• Ensure data accuracy and consistency across systems by validating transformations and outputs against defined requirements.
• Identify and investigate data discrepancies, root causes, and corrective actions.
• Develop validation and reconciliation processes to maintain high data quality standards.
• Support system testing by verifying that implemented logic and data outputs function as expected.

6. Technical Leadership and Collaboration

• Provide technical guidance related to database development, data modeling, and ETL design.
• Collaborate with engineering teams to ensure solutions align with architecture standards and best practices.
• Assist in identifying opportunities to improve system efficiency, data performance, and maintainability.

7. Deployment and Operational Support

• Support the promotion of database and ETL changes through development, testing, and production environments.
• Monitor system performance and proactively identify opportunities for optimization and improvement.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of data pipelines, database performance, and data architecture.

Required Skills & Experience:

Advanced SQL & Database Development

• Minimum 3 years of experience in a database development role (e.g., SQL Server, PostgreSQL, Oracle)
• Expert-level SQL development including complex joins, window functions, subqueries, and query optimization.
• Experience designing and developing scalable database solutions.

Data Modeling & Data Architecture

• Strong experience designing logical and physical data models that support enterprise reporting and analytics.
• Understanding of data normalization, dimensional modeling, and performance optimization techniques.

ETL and Data Pipeline Development

• Extensive experience designing and maintaining ETL pipelines and data transformation processes.
• Ability to design efficient and reliable data ingestion and transformation workflows.

Analytical Thinking

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to interpret complex data relationships and business logic.

System & Data Troubleshooting

• Ability to analyze system behavior, identify root causes of data issues, and implement effective technical solutions.

Performance Optimization

• Experience improving database and ETL performance through indexing strategies, query optimization, and efficient data structures.

Technical Documentation

• Ability to clearly document data models, ETL processes, technical logic, and system dependencies.

Soft Skills:

• Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written

• Ability to work independently and collaboratively within cross-functional teams

• Confident in gathering and translating requirements from technical and business stakeholders

• Highly detail-oriented with a commitment to data accuracy and reliability
