  • Use and implement data extraction APIs.
  • Write and invoke custom SQL procedures.
  • Support data versioning strategies using automated tools.

What we're looking for

  • Experience with using and developing data APIs.
  • Experience using AWS, Snowflake, or other comparable large-scale analytics platforms.
  • Experience monitoring and managing databases (we use Elasticsearch / MongoDB / PostgreSQL).
  • Experience with SQL.
  • Experience with data versioning tools.
  • Experience developing and maintaining data infrastructure for ETL pipelines, such as Apache Airflow.
