- Data Quality, Governance & Controls: Establish and enforce data quality checks, reconciliation controls, and validation frameworks to ensure the accuracy and completeness of financial data. Implement governance standards including lineage, auditability, and data certification aligned with regulatory and internal control expectations. Support operational readiness by enabling monitoring, alerting, and issue resolution across data pipelines.
- Performance & Scalability: Optimize Snowflake performance and cost efficiency for large-scale financial datasets through clustering, partitioning, and query tuning. Contribute to platform architecture decisions, development standards, and best practices to ensure long-term scalability and maintainability.
- Collaboration & Leadership: Work closely with investment operations, finance, reporting, and analytics stakeholders to ensure platform alignment with business needs. Act as a senior technical contributor in a lean, high-impact environment, influencing design decisions and mentoring junior engineers as needed.
