• Build end-to-end automated pipelines from source systems to Snowflake, ensuring reliability, scalability, and observability
• Apply advanced SQL in Snowflake for transformation, standardization, and preparation of analytics-ready datasets
• Optimize ingestion performance for large-scale, high-volume datasets using API rate-limit handling, micro-batching, and incremental loading / CDC
• Implement DevOps and CI/CD practices for data pipelines, including version control and deployment automation
• Partner with analysts, SMEs, and platform teams to rapidly prototype pipelines supporting exploration and evolving requirements
• Monitor, troubleshoot, and optimize ingestion jobs to ensure data freshness, accuracy, and performance

• Proven experience ingesting business application data (CRM, ERP, financial, consumption, renewals systems)
• Advanced proficiency with Python and Fivetran (or similar ETL/ELT tool) for pipelines, automation, orchestration, and validation
• Expertise with Kafka, Spark, and S3 / lakehouse-style storage architectures
• Strong proficiency with Snowflake, ingestion, transformation, and performance optimization
• Deep understanding of ingestion optimization, rate limits, micro-batching, incremental loads, and CDC
• Experience applying DevOps / CI/CD practices to data pipelines
• Ability to work independently and deliver solutions rapidly in a fast-paced, iterative environment
