Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and maintain scalable data pipelines in Databricks, ensuring data is reliable, timely, and well-documented.
  • Own and evolve Databricks models, including defining schemas, enforcing testing, and maintaining the warehouse.

  • Build performance dashboards and reports in Streamlit and HTMX (FastAPI) for Finance, Asset Management, and Fund Management.
  • Integrate internal and third-party systems via REST APIs to improve data accessibility.
  • Champion data quality through validation, monitoring, and governance practices.
  • Collaborate with non-technical teams to understand their problems and translate them into data solutions.

Requirements

  • Strong SQL and Python skills for pipeline development, data modelling, and automation.
  • Experience with modern data stack tooling, including a cloud data platform (Databricks preferred) and version control (Git/GitHub).
  • Solid understanding of data modelling, warehousing patterns, and ETL/ELT design.
  • Comfort working with Postgres or similar relational databases.
