You will design, build, and operate secure, audited, and cost-efficient data pipelines on Snowflake—from raw ingestion to Data Vault 2.0 models and onward to business-friendly consumption layers (mart/semantic). You'll use Qlik/Glue/ETLs for ingestion, dbt Cloud for modeling/testing, MWAA/Airflow and/or dbt Cloud orchestration for scheduling and Terraform (with Hashi Corp practices) for infrastructure-as-code. The ideal candidate must have hands-on experience with data ingestion frameworks and Snowflake platform database/schema design, security, networking, and governance that satisfy regulatory and compliance audit requirements.

  • Implement Raw ? DV 2.0 (Hubs/Links/Satellites) ? Consumption patterns in dbt Cloud with robust tests (unique/notnull/relationships/freshness).
  • Build performant Snowflake objects (tables, streams, tasks, materialized views) and optimize clustering/micro-partitioning.
Orchestration
  • Author and operate Airflow (MWAA) DAGs and/or dbt Cloud jobs; design idempotent, rerunnable, lineage-tracked workflows with SLAs/SLOs.
Security & Governance
  • Enforce RBAC/ABAC, network policies/rules, masking/row access policies, tags, data classification, and least-privilege role hierarchies.
  • Operationalize audit-ready controls (change management, approvals, runbooks, separation of duties, evidence capture).
IaC & Dev Ops
  • Use CI/CD flows, Terraform, Git branching for code promotion.
Data Quality & Observability
  • Bake tests into dbt; implement contract checks, reconciliations, and anomaly alerts.
  • Monitor with Snowflake /, event tables, and forward logs/metrics to SIEM/APM (e.g., Splunk, Datadog).
