This role is ideal for someone who combines technical depth, architectural judgment, and consulting presence.

• Assess current-state data platforms, pipelines, and patterns, then identify opportunities for improvement, simplification, modernization, and optimization

• Design and implement robust batch and near real-time data pipelines to support analytics, reporting, and advanced data use cases

• Develop and optimize data transformation layers using SQL, Python, dbt, and related modern data engineering practices

• Drive Snowflake platform excellence across performance tuning, workload optimization, cost efficiency, data modeling, security and governance, and orchestration and automation

• Proactively introduce and evaluate relevant Snowflake capabilities such as Snowpark, Streams and Tasks, Dynamic Tables, data sharing, and other platform enhancements

• Contribute to platform strategy discussions, including articulating the strengths and tradeoffs of Snowflake versus other modern data platforms.

• Partner with engineers, analysts, architects, and business stakeholders to deliver production-ready solutions in a fast-paced consulting environment

• Support pre-sales, discovery, and technical advisory conversations when needed

• Proven experience designing and delivering end-to-end production data solutions

• Strong understanding of data warehouse, lakehouse, and modern cloud data architecture patterns

• Experience working directly with client stakeholders, architects, and technical leads

• Ability to operate with confidence and credibility in front of client teams, including the ability to push back constructively and influence architecture direction

• Experience with dbt or similar transformation and testing frameworks

• Experience with ingestion and integration patterns using APIs, file-based ingestion, ELT platforms such as Fivetran or equivalent, and cloud-native services

• Strong communication skills with the ability to explain technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences
