  • Ensure data is optimized and readily accessible for BI tools such as Looker and other analytics platforms.
  • Implement automated data quality checks, validation rules, and monitoring frameworks to ensure the integrity and reliability of data pipelines and warehouse systems.
  • Establish processes for data governance, observability, and lineage tracking.
  • Work closely with software engineers, data analysts, and data scientists to understand their data requirements and provide the necessary infrastructure and data products.
  • Lead and support client and stakeholder communication, working with enterprise clients to translate business needs into scalable data solutions.
  • Partner with product teams and leadership to ensure that technical data solutions align with business strategy and client expectations.
  • Take ownership of data platforms and architecture decisions, helping shape the future direction of our analytics and data infrastructure.
  • Identify opportunities to improve data reliability, automate workflows, and generate new insights through data.
  • Contribute to a collaborative, high-performing engineering culture with strong communication and teamwork.

Basic Qualifications
