The ideal candidate will bring strong programming expertise in Python, PySpark, and related languages, combined with deep, hands-on experience building, deploying, and operating data pipelines on AWS. This role requires strong capability in handling large datasets and complex data models, along with solid SQL Server and stored procedure experience, to support enterprise-scale data ingestion, migration, and transformation initiatives.

Responsibilities:

• Lead and perform hands-on development of data engineering solutions, writing clean, efficient, and maintainable code in Python, PySpark, and other relevant programming languages.

• Design, develop, and deploy cloud-native solutions on AWS, leveraging Compute services (EC2, Lambda) and Storage services (S3) to build scalable data platforms.

• Design and manage database solutions using RDS, Aurora, Postgres, and DynamoDB to support structured and unstructured data workloads.

• Build and orchestrate data workflows using Apache Airflow, AWS Step Functions, and SNS for reliable, automated pipeline execution.

• Develop and optimize ETL/analytics pipelines using AWS Glue, EMR, Athena, and Redshift for large-scale data processing and analytics.

• Implement and manage infrastructure as code and deployment automation using AWS CloudFormation and CodePipeline.

• Plan and execute data migration strategies using AWS DataSync and AWS DMS, ensuring data integrity and minimal downtime.

• Integrate services using API Gateway and manage secure access controls through IAM.

• Handle large datasets and data models end-to-end — including data model design, data model creation, and development of data pipelines for ingestion, migration, and transformation.

• Write, optimize, and maintain SQL Server queries and stored procedures to support data processing and reporting needs.

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including architects, analysts, and business stakeholders, to translate requirements into robust technical solutions.

• Ensure data pipelines and cloud infrastructure adhere to enterprise security, governance, and compliance standards.

Mandatory skill sets:

• 6–8 years of hands-on experience leading and performing development, with strong command of one or more programming languages such as Python, PySpark, etc.

• 4–6 years of hands-on experience developing and deploying cloud-native solutions on AWS, including Compute (EC2, Lambda), Storage (S3), and Database (RDS, Aurora, Postgres, DynamoDB) services.

• Hands-on experience with orchestration tools such as Apache Airflow, Step Functions, and SNS.

• Strong expertise in ETL/Analytics services (Glue, EMR, Athena, Redshift), Infrastructure (CloudFormation, CodePipeline), and Data Migration tools (AWS DataSync, AWS DMS).

• Working knowledge of API Gateway and IAM for secure service integration and access management.

• Expertise in handling large datasets and data models — including design, data model creation, and development of data pipelines for ingestion, migration, and transformation.

• Strong hands-on experience with SQL Server and stored procedures.

• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to work independently and lead development efforts in a fast-paced environment.

• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across technical and business stakeholders.

Preferred skill sets:

• Knowledge of APIs and API integration patterns.
