  • Contribute to documentation, testing, and release processes

What You Bring

  • 4-6 years of experience in data engineering or a related discipline
  • Experience developing data solutions for finance and accounting domains (e.g., general ledger, revenue, billing, payments, financial reporting)
  • Hands‑on experience with Snowflake and AWS cloud‑native data services
  • Strong SQL skills, including performance optimization and complex query development
  • Experience with DBT or similar modern ELT/ETL tools
  • Background working with financial data warehouses or data lakes
  • Familiarity with cloud migrations from on‑premises SQL systems
  • Understanding of financial data modeling, ETL/ELT best practices, and analytics architecture
  • Strong communication skills, especially when working with finance and accounting stakeholders
  • Experience in Agile/Scrum environments
  • Experience using AI‑assisted development tools

Preferred Qualifications

  • 3 years working with modern ELT/ETL tooling (DBT preferred)
  • Expertise tuning and optimizing SQL stored procedures and transformations
  • Python experience for data engineering, automation, or financial data processing
  • Experience supporting financial close cycles, reconciliations, audits, or executive financial reporting
  • Familiarity with real‑time or near‑real‑time data processing
  • Knowledge of Git, CI/CD pipelines, DevOps tools, Jira, and Confluence
