Translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions.
Participate in Agile ceremonies, sprint planning, estimation, and solution design sessions.

Engineering Excellence

Develop high-quality, production-ready code using software engineering best practices.
Perform code reviews and promote continuous improvement.
Maintain technical documentation and data lineage.
Support CI/CD processes and deployment automation where applicable.
Monitor and troubleshoot data pipelines and production environments.

Extensive experience developing ETL/ELT pipelines.
Strong SQL development and database optimisation skills.
Experience working with cloud-based data platforms such as Azure or AWS.
Experience integrating data from multiple enterprise source systems.
Strong understanding of data modelling and dimensional modelling principles.
Experience working within Agile delivery teams.
Strong problem-solving and analytical skills.
