We prioritize scalability, performance, and automation to streamline data operations and support informed decision-making across the company.
Key Responsibilities

- Automate data offloading and partition management, leveraging AWS services like S3 and external schemas.
- Ensure version control and documentation of all Redshift queries, ETL processes, and AWS configurations through a centralized GitHub repository.
- Develop monitoring and alerting for data pipelines using CloudWatch and other observability tools to ensure high availability and early issue detection.
- Implement and maintain data quality checks and governance processes to ensure accuracy and consistency across foundational tables.
- Collaborate with AI engineers and business stakeholders to enhance data accessibility and reporting for internal teams.
- Maintain and optimize BI dashboards in Metabase and HubSpot, ensuring accuracy and efficiency of business reporting.
- Manage key integrations between Redshift and external platforms, including Mixpanel, HubSpot, and Census, optimizing data accessibility and performance.
- Administer AWS infrastructure supporting Redshift, ensuring efficient resource utilization, IAM security, and cost management.
- Automate repetitive data tasks using Python and scripting to enhance data processes and improve team efficiency.
