Responsibilities

• Document pipelines, data mappings, processes, and incident resolutions.

• Contribute to engineering standards, code reviews, and continuous improvement within the Data team.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Data Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field.

• Solid understanding of ETL/ELT, data modeling, and data warehouse / data lake concepts.
• Strong attention to data quality, accuracy, and detail.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills; able to troubleshoot data workflows to root cause.
• Good communication and documentation skills; able to work with both technical and nontechnical stakeholders.
