The Data Engineer will design, build, and optimize scalable data pipelines and architectures that transform raw financial data into high-quality, analytics-ready, and AI-enabled datasets. These datasets support strategic reporting, planning, forecasting, automation, and advanced analytics across the organization.
Reporting to the Director, Finance Data & BI, this Data Engineer will serve as an agile technical partner to Data Product, Architecture, Business Intelligence, Data Science, Finance Analysts, and business stakeholders. This role plays a key part in building the future-state Finance data platforms at MMS, supporting enterprise analytics, AI/ML use cases, and sound financial governance.

  • Create and maintain ETL processes and contribute to CI/CD deployment workflows using GitHub Actions or similar tools

Optimization, Data Quality & Governance
  • Implement and optimize data models (e.g., dimensional modeling) within the Finance data environment
  • Optimize data architecture for performance, scalability, and cost efficiency across large financial datasets
  • Design and implement automated data quality checks, anomaly detection, and validation processes to ensure accuracy and trust in downstream analytics and AI use cases
  • Ensure all data solutions meet financial governance and compliance standards, including SOX requirements

Collaboration & Communication
  • Partner closely with Finance teams (Accounting, FP&A), BI, and Data Product partners to translate complex business requirements into scalable technical solutions
  • Communicate technical concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders, balancing innovation with operational risk and controls
  • Enable trusted data environments required for forecasting models, scenario planning, and AI-driven insights

  • Strong proficiency in object-oriented programming languages such as Python, Java, or C#
