Job Description
Design, develop and maintain data solutions for data generation, collection, and processing. Create data pipelines, ensure data quality, and implement ETL (extract, transform and load) processes to migrate and deploy data across systems.
Key Responsibilities:
Develop high-quality, scalable ETL/ELT pipelines using Databricks technologies including Delta Lake, Auto Loader, and DLT
Excellent programming and debugging skills in Python
Strong hands-on experience with PySpark to build efficient data transformation and validation logic
Must be proficient in at least one cloud platform: AWS, GCP, or Azure
Create modular dbx functions for transformation, PII masking, and validation logic — reusable across DLT and notebook pipelines
Implement ingestion patterns using Auto Loader with checkpointing and schema evolution for structured and semi-structured data
Build secure and observable DLT pipelines with DLT Expectations, supporting Bronze/Silver/Gold medallion layering
Configure Unity Catalog: set up catalogs, schemas, user/group access, enable audit logging, and define masking for PII fields
Enable secure data access across domains and workspaces via Unity Catalog External Locations, Volumes, and lineage tracking
Access and utilize data assets from the Databricks Marketplace to support enrichment, model training, or benchmarking
Collaborate with data sharing stakeholders to implement Delta Sharing — both internally and externally
Integrate Power BI/Tableau/Looker with Databricks using optimized connectors (ODBC/JDBC) and Unity Catalog security controls
Build stakeholder-facing SQL Dashboards within Databricks to monitor KPIs, data pipeline health, and operational SLAs
Prepare GenAI-compatible datasets: manage vector embeddings, index with Databricks Vector Search, and use Feature Store with MLflow
Package and deploy pipelines using Databricks Asset Bundles through CI/CD pipelines in GitHub or GitLab
Troubleshoot, tune, and optimize jobs using Photon engine and serverless compute, ensuring cost efficiency and SLA reliability.
At least 2 years of relevant work experience with cloud-based services relevant to data engineering, data storage, data processing, data warehousing, real-time streaming, and serverless computing
Hands on Experience in applying Performance optimization techniques
Understanding data modeling and data warehousing principles is essential
Good to have:
Certifications: Databricks Certified Professional or similar certifications.
Machine Learning: Knowledge of machine learning concepts and experience with popular ML libraries
Knowledge of big data processing (e.g., Spark, Hadoop, Hive,Kafka)
Data Orchestration: Apache Airflow
Knowledge of CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices in a cloud environment.
Experience with ETL tools like Informatica, Talend, Matillion, or Fivetran.
Familiarity with dbt (Data Build Tool)
