About You:

You thrive in a vibrant, entrepreneurial organization where your ideas are valued. You are motivated by goals, a self-starter, and enjoy wearing multiple hats in a fast-growing fintech environment.

You are a talented professional looking for a career, not a job.  Reporting to the Director, Data Platform, you will be responsible for developing and troubleshooting Stored Procedures, SQL, and SQL-based strategy for various teams. Much of your work will focus on Finance-related concepts and you will work closely with our Finance team, so ideally you already have some of this knowledge or you are highly motivated and autonomous when learning.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain secure, scalable Snowflake databases, schemas, warehouses, and data-sharing solutions for analytics, reporting, and finance use cases
• Translate business and Finance requirements into well-defined Snowflake data models, technical designs, data contracts, and implementation plans
• Develop and troubleshoot advanced Snowflake SQL, Snowflake Scripting, stored procedures, user-defined functions, and reusable data-platform components
• Build and maintain reliable ELT pipelines using Snowflake stages, file formats, COPY INTO, Snowpipe, Streams, Tasks, Dynamic Tables, and appropriate integration or orchestration tools.
• Create and evolve dimensional, relational, and semi-structured data models using Snowflake capabilities such as VARIANT, FLATTEN, and schema evolution where appropriate
• Optimize Snowflake workloads by using Query Profile and query history to improve pruning, warehouse sizing, clustering, concurrency, caching, and overall execution performance
• Establish cost-efficient warehouse and workload-management strategies, including sizing, auto-suspend, resource monitors, and usage monitoring
• Implement and maintain Snowflake security and governance controls, including role-based access control, least-privilege permissions, masking policies, row access policies, tagging, auditing, and data classification
• Support reliable development and release practices across environments through Git-based version control, code review, automated testing, CI/CD, and repeatable deployment processes
• Develop monitoring, reconciliation, quality checks, and operational dashboards to identify pipeline failures, data freshness issues, query regressions, and unexpected Snowflake consumption
• Apply Snowflake capabilities such as Time Travel, zero-copy cloning, secure data sharing, and environment isolation to support recovery, testing, and controlled access
• Partner with Finance, Data Engineering, Analytics, and application teams to resolve data issues, improve definitions, and increase trust in critical business data
• Document data models, lineage, operational procedures, security decisions, and performance or cost-tuning recommendations
• Contribute to technical standards and mentor team members on Snowflake engineering best practices

Requirements

Must Have:

• 8+ years of professional experience designing, developing, and troubleshooting SQL-based database or data-engineering solutions
• 3+ years of hands-on experience building and operating production workloads on Snowflake
• Strong knowledge of Snowflake architecture, including databases, schemas, virtual warehouses, micro-partitions, storage/compute separation, caching, and workload isolation
• Advanced Snowflake SQL skills, including complex transformations, window functions, semi-structured data, query optimization, and data reconciliation
• Experience developing Snowflake Scripting procedures, JavaScript or Python stored procedures, user-defined functions, and other reusable database logic
• Practical experience designing ELT pipelines with Snowflake stages, file formats, COPY INTO, Snowpipe, Streams, Tasks, Dynamic Tables, or comparable Snowflake-native features
• Proven ability to model data for analytics and Finance, including dimensional modeling, facts and dimensions, slowly changing dimensions, and appropriate normalization or denormalization decisions
• Demonstrated experience diagnosing and improving Snowflake performance using query history, Query Profile, warehouse configuration, partition pruning, clustering, and workload/concurrency analysis
• Experience managing Snowflake access and governance through RBAC, custom roles, grants, masking policies, row access policies, tags, and audit or usage monitoring
• Experience with Python and scripting for data engineering, automation, testing, or Snowflake administration; Snowpark experience is an asset
• Experience with GitHub or GitLab and collaborative software-development practices, including pull requests, code review, and automated deployment
• Experience using generative AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, or Copilot is an asset, along with the ability to adopt AI tools responsibly in day-to-day engineering work

Nice To Have:

• Experience with dbt, Airflow, Dagster, or another modern transformation and orchestration framework integrated with Snowflake
• Experience with Snowflake governance, observability, cost-management, data-quality, or catalog tools
• Experience with Snowflake account replication, failover groups, secure data sharing, or other business-continuity capabilities
• Knowledge of Finance, accounting, lending, risk, or regulatory reporting concepts and data requirements
• Experience migrating workloads from MySQL, Oracle, or other legacy database platforms to Snowflake
• Development experience in Java or another application programming language
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code or automated cloud deployment practices
• Experience working with APIs, event-driven ingestion, REST services, or cloud storage integrations
