Collaborate with data engineers, data governance specialists, and data owners to implement approved quality rules, thresholds, and publication criteria.
Investigate data discrepancies, perform root cause analysis, and coordinate corrective actions to prevent recurring quality issues.
Maintain data quality rules, test cases, validation results, and supporting documentation in the Data Quality Rule Library and related repositories.
Develop and maintain data quality metrics, dashboards, and reports, including contributions to the Summit Data Quality and Ingestion Dashboard.
Support production monitoring and release readiness by validating corrective actions, retesting affected datasets, and confirming compliance with established quality standards.

Minimum Requirements:

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Data Analytics, or a related technical discipline, or an equivalent combination of education and relevant professional experience.
Five or more years of professional experience in data quality engineering, data validation, data testing, or a related discipline.
Strong proficiency in Structured Query Language (SQL) for data profiling, reconciliation, validation, and analysis.
Experience developing automated data quality tests and validation scripts using Python or comparable programming languages.
Experience testing Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) and Extract, Load, and Transform (ELT) processes in enterprise data environments.
Experience validating data accuracy, completeness, consistency, and integrity across multiple source systems and data platforms.
Experience with data reconciliation, regression testing, anomaly detection, and root cause analysis.
Familiarity with cloud-based data platforms, data warehouses, and lakehouse architectures.
Experience documenting data quality rules, test results, defects, and corrective actions.
Strong analytical, troubleshooting, communication, and collaboration skills.
Ability to meet VA personnel vetting, background investigation, and system access requirements.
The ability to travel for 1-2 domestic business trips per year.

Preferred Qualifications:

Experience supporting VA or other federal agency data modernization initiatives.
Hands-on experience with Microsoft Azure data services, Azure Databricks, or Delta Lake.
Experience implementing enterprise data quality frameworks or tools such as Great Expectations, Soda, or comparable technologies.
Knowledge of Data Management Association (DAMA) data quality principles and enterprise data governance practices.
Experience implementing data observability solutions and automated quality monitoring for large-scale data pipelines.
Experience working with sensitive healthcare data and federal privacy and security requirements.

This range is not a guarantee of compensation or salary, as Trilogy Federal conducts an individual equity review for every candidate based on experience, location, education, industry experience, and comparisons to internal pay bands. In addition to salary, Trilogy offers robust benefits including medical/dental/vision insurance coverage, 401(k) match, paid holidays, paid time off, tuition reimbursement, and a very supportive work/life balance.

To cut down on falsified applications and to avoid subjecting real candidates to screening by AI assistants, phone interviews at Trilogy require either a landline or a cellphone number backed by a physical SIM. We cannot conduct interviews with candidates who provide VOIP contact numbers (including Google Voice).

We do not discriminate based upon race, religion, color, national origin, gender (including pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions), sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, status as a protected veteran, status as an individual with a disability, or other applicable legally protected characteristics.
