- Legacy Modernization & Migration: Lead migration initiatives from legacy data stores to modern data architectures, establishing robust data mapping frameworks, transformation logic, and architectural consistency.
- Data Quality & Integrity: Implement end-to-end data reconciliation, schema validation, de-duplication, and financial data integrity checks supporting mission-critical analytics and regulatory reporting.
- Roadmapping & Prioritization: Drive product roadmaps, groom and prioritize technical backlogs, and balance feature delivery against technical debt and platform reliability.
- Full-Lifecycle Execution: Spearhead initiatives across all phases-from business requirements gathering and technical design through development, integration testing, user acceptance testing (UAT), cutover planning, and go-live execution.
- Agile Orchestration: Break down high-level strategic objectives into epics, technical user stories, and acceptance criteria in Jira.
- Stakeholder Management & Change Enablement: Serve as the central conduit between business users, quant/analytics teams, and engineering leads; proactively escalate risks, align timelines, and ensure operational readiness during platform rollouts.

- 8+ years writing advanced SQL, including deep expertise in complex Window Functions, Common Table Expressions (CTEs), recursive queries, dynamic conditional logic, and database query optimization.
- Demonstrated production experience deploying and optimizing solutions on Snowflake and associated cloud ecosystems (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
- Proven background managing end-to-end project lifecycles, release management, operational cutover plans, and Jira/Confluence delivery frameworks.
- Experience designing automated continuous reconciliation frameworks for complex accounting, portfolio, or transactional data.
- Familiarity with modern orchestration tools (e.g., Airflow, Prefect, Dagster) and data transformation frameworks (e.g., dbt).
