• Develop and manage integrations between operational systems and the central data platform, including batch and near-real-time flows.

• Model raw and conformed data into well-structured, documented tables in the data warehouse or lakehouse.

• Implement data quality checks, monitoring, and alerting so issues are caught before they reach downstream users.

• Partner with analytics engineers and analysts to expose reliable, well-documented datasets.

• Contribute to data platform standards, including version control, testing, orchestration, and CI/CD.

Minimum Requirements

• +6 years of experience in data engineering or a closely related role.

• Strong SQL and proficiency in Python (or a comparable language) for data processing.

• Hands-on experience building ETL/ELT pipelines and working with a cloud data warehouse or lakehouse in Azure or using MS Fabric. Similar tools like Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks or similar are helpful.

• Experience integrating data from ERP systems, ideally SAP, and familiarity with supply chain or manufacturing data.

• Experience with orchestration tools (Airflow, dbt, or similar) and version control (Git).

• Understanding of data modeling concepts and data quality practices.

• Ability to work with messy, inconsistent source data and turn it into something trustworthy.
