  • Develop dbt models, tests, documentation, macros, and incremental processing logic
  • Monitor Airflow DAGs and troubleshoot pipeline and data-quality issues
  • Optimize BigQuery queries for performance and cost efficiency
  • Build Power BI semantic models, relationships, measures, calculated columns, and DAX calculations
  • Perform source-to-target validation and data reconciliation
  • Implement data-quality checks to ensure reliable and consistent reporting
  • Participate in code reviews, deployments, testing, and production support

  • Experience working with fact and dimension models and star-schema-based reporting solutions
  • Knowledge of data validation, reconciliation, and troubleshooting techniques
  • Experience using Git or similar version-control tools

Added Advantage / Good to Have

  • Any hands-on experience with Snowflake will be an added advantage
  • Any experience with Databricks, Apache Spark, or Lakehouse architecture will be an added advantage
  • Experience with Python for data engineering or automation
