-
Build and optimize ELT/ETL processes using SQL, Python, Snowpark, dbt, and Snowflake-native capabilities.
-
Modernize existing Python- and stored-procedure-based pipelines using set-based processing, incremental loading, and reusable engineering patterns.
-
Implement Snowflake-native data-processing solutions using Dynamic Tables, Streams, Tasks, and stored procedures.
-
Improve platform performance and cost efficiency through query tuning, warehouse right-sizing, clustering strategies, workload isolation, and auto-suspend and auto-resume policies.
-
Develop reliable orchestration, dependency management, monitoring, error handling, retry, and recovery mechanisms.
-
Design and maintain dimensional, relational, and domain-oriented data models.
-
Implement data-quality checks, observability, testing, lineage, and documentation standards.
-
Integrate data from batch and real-time sources using tools such as Fivetran, Kafka, Airflow, or similar technologies.
-
Contribute to CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code practices, and automated deployment processes.
-
Work closely with architects and client stakeholders to translate business and technical requirements into production-ready solutions.
-
Participate in code reviews, technical design discussions, estimation, and Agile delivery activities.

Hands-on experience with Snowpark and Snowflake-native capabilities such as Dynamic Tables, Streams, and Tasks.
-
Proven experience designing and supporting scalable ELT/ETL pipelines in production environments.
-
Strong understanding of Snowflake performance and cost optimization, including warehouse sizing, query profiling, clustering, and workload management.
-
Experience with data modeling, incremental processing, pipeline orchestration, and dependency management.
-
Experience with dbt or a comparable data transformation framework.
-
Familiarity with at least one major cloud platform: AWS, Azure, or GCP.
-
Experience with Git, CI/CD, automated testing, and modern software delivery practices.
-
Strong troubleshooting, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
