Jr. Data Engineer

The Jr. Data Engineer will support the development of Data Vault 2.0 solutions within the Modern Data Platform. Working alongside senior engineers and architects, they will help build and maintain staging, Raw Vault, and Business Vault structures that serve as the foundation for enterprise reporting, analytics, semantic models, AI applications, and data products.

Engineers in this role will analyze source system data, participate in source-to-target mapping activities, develop Data Vault 2.0 objects, validate data quality, and document technical solutions. They will use Snowflake, SQL, dbt, and approved platform tools to support metadata-driven development and AI-first engineering workflows.

The engineer will participate in code reviews, testing, deployment activities, and production support efforts while gaining exposure to the full data lifecycle--from source system ingestion through Data Vault development and downstream consumption.
