• Enable enterprise reporting, dashboards, and analytical products used for leadership decision‑making and operational performance.
• Evaluate solution alternatives and recommend approaches based on technical feasibility, risk, and long‑term sustainability.
• Establish and maintain data engineering standards, coding frameworks, and best practices aligned with Liberty IT governance.
• Provide technical direction and guidance to lower‑level Data Engineers without formal supervisory authority.
• Serve as a subject matter expert for complex enhancements and architectural decisions.
• Provide advanced technical consulting, incident support, and root‑cause analysis for production data solutions.
• Support full lifecycle delivery using Agile methodologies, including design, development, testing, deployment, and stabilization.
• Ensure solutions meet defined quality, security, and release standards.
• Produce and maintain technical documentation, design artifacts, and solution standards to support auditability, regulatory review, and knowledge transfer.
• Ensure alignment with enterprise change and release management processes.

Education and Experience

• University - Bachelor's Degree or equivalent in a related field of study.
• 10+ years in Data Engineering.
• 5+ years in Lead, Principal, or Manager-level responsibilities in Data Engineering.
• Prior utility industry experience preferred.
