  • Utilize Databricks for data processing, transformation, and orchestration tasks.
  • Ensure data quality, accuracy, and integrity throughout the data pipelines.
  • Collaborate with data analysts and BI developers (particularly Tableau users) to understand data requirements and optimize data models for performance.
  • Monitor data pipelines and systems for performance issues, errors, and data discrepancies, implementing necessary fixes and improvements.
  • Develop and maintain technical documentation for data pipelines, processes, and data models.
  • Troubleshoot data-related issues and provide timely resolutions.
  • Implement best practices for data security and governance within the data platform.
Required Skills and Qualifications:
  • Proven experience as a Data Engineer, with a strong focus on API integration and database management.
  • Experience building data pipelines for API data ingestion, including handling authentication, error handling, and data parsing.
  • Strong proficiency in SQL and experience with database design, query optimization, and performance tuning in relational databases (e.g., Postgres).
  • Hands-on experience with Snowflake as a cloud data warehouse, including data loading, querying, and performance optimization.
  • Experience using Databricks for data processing, ETL/ELT, and pipeline orchestration (e.g., PySpark, notebooks).
  • Proficiency in a programming language commonly used for data engineering (e.g., Python).
  • Experience working with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP) where Snowflake and Databricks are deployed.
  • Understanding of data warehousing concepts and best practices.
  • Experience supporting BI tools (like Tableau) by providing clean, structured, and performant data sources.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills.
  • Experience with specific ETL/orchestration tools (e.g., Airflow, Fivetran, dbt).
  • Familiarity with containerization technologies (e.g., Docker).
  • Experience in a contract or consulting role.
  • Knowledge of data governance and compliance standards.
  • Experience with BI tools like Tableau, including dashboard creation or assisting BI developers with visualization best practices related to data structure.
