Sounds awesome, right? Now, let’s make sure you’re a good fit for the role: Responsibilities: Existing platform (Databricks)

• Keep production pipelines running: ingestion, transformation, and delivery to downstream consumers.
• Diagnose and resolve pipeline failures and data quality issues, often without documentation to fall back on.
• Reverse-engineer and document existing transformation logic and business rules — this is the input the migration depends on.
• Migrate legacy tables from Hive Metastore to Unity Catalog.
• Maintain Iceberg-enabled table sharing between Databricks and Snowflake. New development (Snowflake, dbt, Airflow)
• Build and test dbt models, including incremental materializations and data tests.
• Develop and maintain Airflow DAGs for orchestration.
• Validate that migrated pipelines produce output equivalent to the Databricks versions.
• Contribute to Snowflake modeling, performance, and cost decisions. Across both
• Work directly with client stakeholders on technical topics, alongside the team lead. Technical Requirements Databricks
• PySpark and SQL — able to read, debug, and modify existing pipelines. Deep Spark tuning is not required.
• Delta Lake : MERGE/upsert patterns, table properties, OPTIMIZE, partitioning.
• Databricks Workflows , cluster configuration, job troubleshooting.
• Unity Catalog : catalogs, schemas, grants, lineage, and the metastore model. Snowflake
• Warehouses, roles and grants, and the general operating model.
• Query performance and an awareness of how compute cost behaves. Dbt
• Models, sources, tests, and incremental materializations.
• Project structure and how dbt fits into a deployment workflow. Airflow
• Writing and maintaining DAGs, operators, scheduling, and dependency management.
• Understanding retries, backfills, and idempotent task design. Fundamentals
• 3+ years operating production data pipelines.
• Strong SQL — window functions, complex joins, reading transformation logic written by someone else.
• Python for scripting, automation, and API integration.
• Incremental loading patterns, idempotency, late-arriving data, reprocessing.
• AWS : S3, IAM basics. Basic working knowledge of Redshift and its role in the wider architecture. Ways of working
• Fluent English — client-facing role with stakeholders based abroad.
• Self-directed. Able to make progress on an unfamiliar codebase without a structured onboarding path, and comfortable asking good questions when context is missing.
• Clear communicator: can explain a production incident to a non-technical stakeholder and give a realistic ETA. Nice-to-have:
• Experience with an actual platform migration, not only greenfield work.
• Open table formats, particularly Iceberg and cross-platform sharing.
• Clickstream or web analytics data (Adobe Analytics, Google Analytics, Segment).
• Experience taking over an undocumented system and stabilizing it.
• AI Tooling Proficiency : Leverage one or more AI tools to optimize and augment day-to-day work, including drafting, analysis, research, or process automation. Provide recommendations on effective AI use and identify opportunities to streamline workflows. What we offer:
• A High-Impact Environment
• Commitment to Professional Development
