Translate complex revenue and finance transformation logic - including billing revenue, usage revenue, deferred revenue, and reconciliation logic - into SQL-native models with CI/CD pipeline controls.
SOX & Governance - Architect access controls, change management workflows, and audit trails aligned to ITand SOX requirements. Enforce row-level and column-level security through Unity Catalog, design segregation of duties, and ensure end-to-end traceability of revenue data from source systems to reporting layers.
Data Modeling - Build and certify Silver and Gold layer data products supporting billing revenue, usage-based revenue, revenue adjustments, deferred revenue, revenue reconciliation, and downstream finance reporting. Define data contracts, automated testing frameworks, referential integrity checks, and canonical data definitions. Experience in MDM and driving end-to-end solutions from problem statements is required.
Ingestion & Orchestration - Design ADF-based ingestion pipelines from ERP, billing, CRM, and source systems into the Bronze layer. Orchestrate pipelines using Databricks Workflows with monitoring, alerting, and scalability considerations.
Semantic Layer & Reporting - Architect governed semantic layers powering Power BI and Tableau dashboards for revenue reporting, reconciliation, FP&A insights, and executive reporting. Ensure reporting assets are certified, governed, and audit-ready.
AI & ML Capabilities - Enable AI/ML-driven insights where applicable, including anomaly detection for revenue variances, predictive trends, and assisted analytics, leveraging Databricks capabilities such as MLflow and AutoML.
Stakeholder Partnership - Translate Revenue, Finance, and FP&A requirements into architecture and data product specifications. Lead design reviews, support UAT for certified data products, and communicate effectively with both technical and business stakeholders.
Standards & Mentorship - Establish architecture standards, data modeling practices, and governance frameworks across the RDMP program. Mentor engineering teams on Databricks, dbt, and best practices aligned with DR COE.
