The Data Engineer will work on implementing data flows to make data available in the Enterprise Data Warehouse from systems of record and operational data stores.  The Data Engineer will get to work on best-in-class cloud technologies(Snowflake, Fivetran, AWS, Azure, Salesforce, Airflow etc) and AI projects for Data Engineering Projects.

Along with making data available in the Enterprise Data Warehouse the Data Engineer will work with Data Analysts to implement data models and calculate key business KPIs for the use of the wider business for reporting and analytics.

The Data Engineer will have the opportunity to learn and develop their skills by working on assignments as part of a Scrum Team. They should be delivery focused and driven to problem solve.

 

How you’ll contribute:

• Design and develop data pipelines that extract data from various sources, transform it into the desired format, and load it into the appropriate data storage systems. 

• Collaborate with data scientists and analysts to optimize models and algorithms for data quality, security, and governance. 

• Integrate data from different sources, including databases, data warehouses, APIs, and external systems. 

• Ensure data consistency and integrity during the integration process, performing data validation and cleaning as needed. 

• Transform raw data into a usable format by applying data cleansing, aggregation, filtering, and enrichment techniques. 

• Optimize data pipelines and data processing workflows for performance, scalability, and efficiency. Come-up with solutions utilising AI concepts through co-pilot, GitHub to improve efficiency and scalability.
• Monitor and tunes data systems, identifies and resolves performance bottlenecks, and implements caching and indexing strategies to enhance query performance. 
• Implement data quality checks and validations within data pipelines to ensure the accuracy, consistency, and completeness of data. Utilise AI through Co-pilot or GitHub or any other trending AI tools, to automate and seamlessly query data based on user inputs in plain English to assess accuracy, consistency and completeness
• Carry out Data QA to validate the pipelines and data post integration as a supporting hand for the QA team

• Take authority, responsibility, and accountability for exploiting the value of enterprise information assets and of the analytics used to render insights for decision making automated decisions and augmentation of human performance. 

• Collaborate with leaders to establish the vision for managing data as a business asset.
