Full Job Description
As a Data Engineer, you'll partner closely with business stakeholders and a team of data engineers and subject matter experts to design, build, and improve enterprise data integration solutions that power analytics, reporting, and data science. You'll translate business and data requirements into scalable ingestion and transformation workflows across a variety of patterns (batch, near real-time, and real time), with a strong emphasis on reliability, data quality, and performance.

In this role, you'll work in a highly collaborative environment-coordinating across onshore and offshore teams and engaging with cross-functional partners such as business analysts, data modelers, technical leaders, and vendor teams. You'll influence technical direction through well-defined ETL specifications and documentation, rigorous testing and quality assurance practices, and consistent alignment to development, coding, and testing standards. You'll also help teams move faster and smarter by advocating for agile ways of working, guiding delivery with hands-on technical expertise, and driving decisions that keep outcomes on track.

You'll have the opportunity to grow your impact through challenging work that shapes the future of the data warehouse-building modern integrations using best-in-class technologies (including Informatica IICS and BigQuery), strengthening how data is modeled and governed, and helping ensure high-quality data is available when it matters most. If you thrive on problem-solving, sound technical decision-making, and partnering with others to deliver measurable outcomes, this is a chance to build capability while making a tangible difference across the enterprise.
