Senior Data Analytics Engineer

We are seeking an innovative Senior Data Engineer to join our Startup AI and Data Analytics Business Unit. This role is a critical bridge, connecting technical engineering with business strategy. Beyond just managing tickets or building pipelines, you will take full ownership of the data ecosystem. You will play a pivotal role in supporting our AI/ML initiatives, managing the modern data stack while simultaneously answering critical business questions to ensure data accessibility, reliability, and scalability.

• Business-First Data Modeling: Design and manage data warehouses to support advanced analytics, focusing on creating "Gold Standard" data models that make self-service easy in platforms like Power
  
  BI, Tableau, and Sigma.
• Documentation & Governance: Maintain comprehensive documentation of all data engineering processes to enable stakeholder self-service, following the industry’s best practices.

• Infrastructure Development: Design and manage data lakes, warehouses, and databases to support advanced analytics and AI workflows.
• Performance Tuning: Act as a SQL/Python expert to optimize data pipelines and troubleshoot issues proactively, ensuring queries are efficient and scalable.
