Expression of Interest - Snowflake Data Engineer

We expect you to be a data-oriented person with data/software engineering chops and at least a pinch of business understanding.

You will be building data pipelines in Snowflake, sometimes as a Hiflylabs team member and sometimes more deeply intertwined with the clients’ organization.  Depending on the assignment and its phase you will be designing and implementing data ingestions  and transformation logics, and sometimes optimize complex ETL processes.  You will be working with technical-focused as well as business-oriented colleagues, so you will have the ability to do deeply technical work as well as converse with product managers and end users and see how your work drives the organization forward.

Main Tasks

• Design and implement Data Pipelines in Snowflake
• Develop ingestion pipelines from various sources (via Snowpipe and other means)
• Create data transformations with SQL, Python, PaaS and 3rd party tools (e.g. dbt)
• Optimize existing pipelines and transformations for cost, load time, and maintainability
• Automate data ingestion and transformation (often with Airflow or similar tools)
• Help business users to formulate their needs on the one hand and to make the most of the data platform on the other hand.
