Senior Data Engineer

Data EngineerLead the end-to-end migration (transformation and load) of high-volume, high-complexity data into a new PostgreSQL-based infrastructure. Design, build, and maintain robust ETL/ELT pipelines capable of processing millions of records reliably and efficiently. Map and reconcile complex legacy data structures across multiple business entities into a unified target schema. Define and implement data validation frameworks to ensure integrity, completeness, and accuracy throughout the migration. Optimize pipeline performance, including query tuning, indexing strategy, and batch/incremental load design in PostgreSQL. Identify, troubleshoot, and resolve data quality issues, schema mismatches, and pipeline failures. Document data mappings, transformation logic, and migration runbooks for engineering and business stakeholders. Partner with business and technical stakeholders to align migration scope, timelines, and data requirements. Establish monitoring, logging, and alerting to track pipeline health and data quality post-migration. Mentor junior data engineers and contribute to engineering best practices and standards.Required Qualifications:5+ years of experience in data engineering, with demonstrated ownership of large-scale data migration projectsStrong to expert-level proficiency in Python for building and automating data pipelinesDeep hands-on experience with PostgreSQL/Oracle, including schema design, query optimization, and performance tuningProven experience designing and managing ETL/ELT pipelines at scale (millions of records)Experience mapping and transforming complex, legacy data structures across disparate systems or business entitiesStrong understanding of data validation, reconciliation, and quality assurance techniquesSolid grasp of data modeling principles (normalization, indexing, partitioning)Experience with version control (Git) and CI/CD practices for data pipelinesPreferred Qualifications:Experience with orchestration tools (e.g., Airflow, Dagster, Prefect)Familiarity with cloud data platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure)Experience with other relational or NoSQL databases and cross-database migrationsBackground working in regulated or high-stakes data environments (finance, healthcare, etc.)Experience with containerization (Docker) and infrastructure-as-codeExposure to data quality/testing frameworks (e.g.)
