You will build and maintain the platform's Bronze/Silver/Gold data layers, ensures a single source of truth for critical data, and provides indirect leadership and mentorship to the SQL Developers on the data platform team. You will partner closely with the BI & Analytics Developer(s) and business stakeholders to ensure the underlying data is accurate, well-governed, and structured to support self-service reporting and advanced analytics.

PRIMARY DUTIES:

• Pipeline Architecture & Development: Design, build, and maintain scalable ETL/ELT data pipelines that move data from source systems (Eclipse/Epicor, Salesforce, Workday, and others) into the governed data platform.

• Data Modeling: Develop and maintain data models and schemas (Bronze/Silver/Gold medallion architecture) that eliminate redundant business logic and establish a single source of truth.

• Platform Modernization: Lead the technical build-out of the data platform in support of the Google Cloud migration, retiring shadow data paths and truncate-and-reload patterns in favor of governed, auditable processes.

• AI-Enabled Engineering: Learn and leverage AI coding tools (such as Claude Code) to optimize pipeline code, accelerate development, and streamline data delivery processes; evaluate and champion effective AI-assisted engineering practices across the data platform team.

• Data Quality & Governance: Engineer governance, validation, and error-handling directly into pipeline design rather than relying on downstream policy; monitor pipeline health and proactively resolve data integrity issues.

• Technical Mentorship & Leadership: Provide indirect leadership, coaching, and code-review guidance to the SQL Developers on the data platform team; set standards and best practices for SQL development and pipeline design.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with the DBA, BI Developer(s), and business stakeholders to translate business and reporting requirements into technical pipeline and data structure designs.

• Documentation: Maintain clear technical documentation of data flows, transformations, and architecture to support team continuity and knowledge transfer.

• Security & Compliance: Ensure data pipelines adhere to data handling, access control, and security standards across all four ERP instances.

• Solid understanding of data modeling concepts, including medallion (Bronze/Silver/Gold) or similar layered architectures.

• Scripting/programming experience (Python or similar) for automation and data transformation a plus.

• Experience with ERP systems (Eclipse/Epicor) a plus.

• Demonstrated ability to mentor and guide less-experienced developers.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to diagnose and resolve data integrity issues in complex, multi-system environments.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.

• Hands-on AI experience a plus.

• Willingness to learn and apply AI coding tools (e.g., Claude Code) to optimize development work and streamline pipeline delivery.

PHYSICAL DEMANDS:

• Frequent sitting, standing, and occasional walking.

• Occasional reaching, twisting, bending.
