What you’ll do:
Success in this role is determined by meeting these key objectives:
[30%] Build data pipelines and tools that reduce the time and risk associated with monthly financial reporting and other finance processes.
Reconciling data across accounts and systems is currently a time consuming, mostly manual process. You will combine data from multiple sources in Databricks and automate reconciliation tasks.
[20%] Build datasets and dashboards that make financial data more transparent, actionable, and accurate.
Only top level financial metrics are currently available in dashboards. You will make detailed financial data easily accessible for decisions and analysis, as well as automate data quality tests to validate key financial metrics.
[20%] Increase data available for analysis and ML models by ingesting new data sources.
Our data lakehouse does not currently include data from all internal data sources, such as our HR system. You will build pipelines to make this data available and useful.
[30%] Increase speed of development, reduce infrastructure failures and cost.
On-call rotation duties: monitor pipeline jobs, review and test new pipeline PRs, track usage and cost.
Add new data quality checks and alerting.
Proactively identify and implement improvements to data infrastructure, as well as the tools used by data scientists and analysts to develop, deploy, and share their work.
Leave our systems and processes better than you found them.
