• Optimizing Snowflake performance and spend (warehouses, caching).
• Enforcing access controls and secrets management, supporting compliance and audit needs.
• Partnering with product/analytics teams; documenting procedures and providing reliable on-call support (rotational).

Essential Skills

• Strong SQL, plus hands-on Python and shell scripting (Bash/PowerShell) on Linux.
• Experience with cloud computing and data warehousing on relational platforms.
• Solid understanding of OLAP/dimensional modeling and RDBMS fundamentals.
• Knowledge of semi/unstructured data (JSON/Parquet) and API integrations.
• Familiarity with open-source ELT/ETL tooling.
• Git-based workflows and CI/CD basics for data deployments.
• Experience building and managing data ingestion pipelines from multiple sources into cloud data platforms.
• Working knowledge of Snowflake, including database objects, warehouses, and basic query optimization.

Nice to have

• Fivetran and/or HVR (Fivetran HVR) experience or equivalent CDC/replication tools.
• Snowflake operations expertise (performance tuning, Streams/Tasks, Snowpark), plus knowledge of Snowflake AI features.
• Streamlit for lightweight internal apps and operational dashboards.
• Experience with enterprise schedulers (e.g., Ctrl-M) and data-quality/observability platforms.
• Background in regulated environments (e.g., healthcare/HIPAA) and service management (e.g., ServiceNow).
