Job Role
JobDescription
Role Overview
We are modernising an enterprise data warehouse to a cloud-native analytics platform on AWS and Snowflake. We are looking for a hands‑on Snowflake Data Engineer to build and support reliable ingestion and ELT pipelines, dimensional data models, and production‑ready data solutions. The role will work closely with senior engineers, architects, QA, cloud/platform teams, and BI users through design, development, testing, deployment, and operational handover.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and maintain data pipelines and data warehouse layers in Snowflake, including RAW, ODS, and DW schemas, tables, and views.
- Implement data ingestion and orchestration using Snowflake features such as Stages, Storage Integrations, Snowpipe, Tasks, Streams, and Stored Procedures, or equivalent approved patterns.
- Develop and maintain dimensional data models, including fact and dimension tables, transformations, aggregates, and lookup structures.
- Write and optimise SQL for data transformation, reconciliation, troubleshooting, and performance improvement.
- Implement data quality checks, validation, reconciliation, logging, and error‑handling controls.
- Support rerun, recovery, and replay activities for failed or incomplete data processing.
- Work with AWS services such as S3 and IAM as part of secure cloud data integration.
- Support SIT, UAT, deployment, documentation, and operational handover activities.
- Collaborate with senior engineers and architects, follow agreed engineering standards, and contribute to code reviews and continuous improvement.
Qualifications Requirements (Must-Have)
- 3+ years of experience in data engineering, data warehousing, or database development.
- Hands‑on experience with Snowflake, or practical experience with another cloud data warehouse and the ability to ramp up quickly on Snowflake.
- Strong SQL skills, including joins, window functions, data transformations, and query troubleshooting.
- Good understanding of dimensional modelling, including fact and dimension table design.
- Experience developing or supporting ETL/ELT pipelines and production data workflows.
- Basic understanding of data quality, reconciliation, logging, retry, and operational support practices.
- Ability to work effectively in a delivery team, communicate clearly, and take ownership of assigned datasets or pipeline components.
Plus Points (Advantage)
- Hands‑on experience with Snowpipe, Tasks, Streams, Stored Procedures, Stages, or Storage Integrations.
- Oracle Data Warehouse or legacy data platform migration experience.
- Experience handling semi‑structured data such as XML, JSON, or Snowflake VARIANT.
- AWS experience, particularly S3, IAM, encryption, and cloud integration patterns.
- Experience with Git‑based development, CI/CD, or automated deployment practices for data solutions.
- Familiarity with Tableau or other BI tools and governed dataset publishing.
- Relevant Snowflake, cloud, data engineering, AI, ML, or GenAI certification(s).
What We Value
- Strong engineering fundamentals and willingness to learn.
- Practical problem‑solving and attention to data correctness.
- Clean implementation, documentation discipline, and reliable delivery.
- Ability to work in a fast‑paced project environment and collaborate with different technical teams.
- Ownership of assigned tasks and openness to technical guidance and feedback.
- A good overall match is more important than meeting every listed technology requirement.
- Ability to join immediately or within 1–2 months is preferred.
Role Expectations
- Able to independently deliver assigned pipelines, datasets, or data warehouse objects with guidance from senior team members.
- Able to investigate data issues, explain findings, and implement appropriate fixes.
- Comfortable supporting testing, deployment, and operational readiness activities.
- Able to learn Snowflake features and project‑specific patterns quickly.
