* Build reusable, parameterized mappings and task flows in Informatica IDMC to standardize data ingestion.
* Implement change data capture (CDC), idempotent loads, schema evolution, and data-quality gates.
* Optimize Big Query loads using partitioning, clustering, and the appropriate load-versus-stream approach.
* Set up version control and CI/CD pipelines for data engineering assets.
2- Data Mapping & Transformation Design;
* Profile source systems and define field-level mappings and transformation rules.
* Specify business logic, including joins, lookups, and derivations.
* Define data-quality rules, exception handling, and reject criteria.
3- Orchestration, Automation & Reliability Engineering;
* Parameterize task flows and configure schedules and dependencies.
* Implement retries, backoff, and checkpointing to ensure reliable processing.
* Integrate monitoring and alerting through the Ops console and ChatOps.
4- Data Roles and Privacy management;
* Define least-privilege IAM roles and service accounts for data access.
* Apply dataset, table, row, and column-level security and data masking.
* Enable audit logging and retention policies, and classify PHI/PII data.
5- Modern Data Architecture & Data Modelling;
* Implement Medallion Architecture across the Bronze, Silver, and Gold layers.
* Develop scalable, curated data models for analytical and reporting needs.
* Define data quality, lineage, and governance standards for curated data.
* Collaborate with business and analytics teams to create trusted datasets.
6- Workload Monitoring, Performance & Cost Optimisation;
* Track data freshness, job health, volumes, and anomalies.
* Monitor SLAs across job duration, errors, cost per TB, and slot usage.
* Tune BigQuery performance through query optimisation and resource management.
* Optimize cost through storage lifecycle management, query tuning, and caching.
Skills
* Data Engineering Tools: Informatica IDMC, Airflow, Apache Spark.
* Programming Languages: SQL, Python.
