    Responsibilities
    • Design and deploy comprehensive data architecture capturing structured and unstructured data from diverse internal and external sources
    • Build resilient ETL/ELT pipelines routing data across cloud structures, local databases, and other storage forms
    • Implement data quality frameworks — validation, monitoring, and automated recovery strategies
    • Collaborate with data scientists to enable advanced analytics, predictive modeling, and ML initiatives
    • Develop web-enabled, self-service analytics solutions that democratize data access company-wide
    • Apply AI/ML and big-data techniques to automate data cleansing, transformation, and enrichment
    • Leverage MCP (Model Context Protocol) to connect enterprise applications and automate data flows
    • Ensure secure, scalable, and compliant data ingestion with appropriate PII handling
    • Troubleshoot pipeline issues, optimize performance, and participate in on-call rotations
    • Mentor junior team members and contribute to data engineering practice growth

    Requirements
    • 8+ years of hands-on ETL/ELT pipeline development across varied data sources
    • Strong programming skills in Python, Scala, or Java (production-quality code)
    • Experience with modern data platforms — Snowflake, Databricks, Apache Spark, Kafka, Airflow
    • Cloud platform experience — AWS, Azure, or GCP and their native data services
    • Experience with real-time data processing and streaming architectures
    • Solid data modeling, warehousing, and dimensional modeling fundamentals
    • Knowledge of containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)
    • Practical knowledge of MCP and AI-assisted development tools
    • Familiarity with DataOps and MLOps practices
    • Experience managing sensitive/PII data with attention to compliance and governance
    • Strong communication skills across technical and non-technical stakeholders

    Preferred
    • Background in data science or analytics
    • Experience in client-facing or Professional Services roles
