Snowflake Data Engineer With Cortex Exp need 15 years

Skills: - Snowflake Cortex, DBT , SQL

Experience in evaluating / troubleshooting and measuring agent performance, identifying issues, and optimizing it

Experience with dbt, semantic view design, or governed self-service analytics patterns.

Python experience for automation, metadata processing, data validation, or AI-assisted engineering workflows. 

·Exposure to agentic AI, natural language analytics, or Snowflake Cortex Analyst / Cortex Search use cases.

Responsibilities: -

Healthcare or payer domain experience, especially with member, claims, provider, quality, or reference data. 

• Snowflake SQL: Highly skilled. Must be able to develop complex transformations, optimize performance, and work confidently with CTEs, advanced joins, and analytic/window functions.
• Snowflake Data Engineering: Strong real-world experience building curated data layers using medallion architecture principles across bronze, silver, and gold datasets.
• Semantic Modeling / Semantic Layer Engineering: Must be able to define business-friendly metrics, dimensions, grain, relationships, and reusable semantic views on top of Snowflake data.
• Snowflake Cortex / AI-Enabled Analytics: Experience supporting Snowflake Cortex-based analytics workflows, semantic intelligence, or agentic analytics use cases is strongly preferred.
• Data Quality, Profiling, and Validation: Must be able to identify natural and surrogate keys, assess cardinality and distribution, validate transformations, and ensure trustworthy semantic outputs.
• Strong communication and ownership: Able to work across engineering, product, and analytics partners, clarify requirements, and proactively drive work with limited direction. 

Specific technologies to be used and level of proficiency? 

·       Snowflake SQL: Highly skilled to expert level.

·       Snowflake: Strong hands-on experience with performance tuning, secure data design, and curated data modeling.

·       Semantic Modeling / Semantic Views: Strong proficiency in defining business metrics, dimensions, relationships, grain, and reusable semantic abstractions.

·       Python: Some experience desired, with preference for intermediate or higher skill for automation and validation use cases.

·       dbt: Preferred real-world experience developing modular transformations, tests, and deployment patterns.

·       Snowflake Cortex: Preferred experience with Cortex-enabled analytics, semantic intelligence, or agent-supporting workflows.

Day to Day Activities: -

• Design and implement scalable Snowflake data models and pipelines that align with business objectives and agentic AI use cases.
• Build curated bronze, silver, and gold data layers and reusable semantic assets that support trusted analytics and natural-language data access.
• Collaborate with product, analytics, and engineering partners to translate complex requirements into governed data products and semantic models.
• Optimize Snowflake queries, warehouse configurations, and transformation performance for reliability, scalability, and cost efficiency.
• Design and implement data quality validation, profiling, and testing strategies to improve trust in downstream semantic outputs.
• Contribute to lineage-aware transformation patterns, documentation, and engineering standards for reusable data assets.
• Use dbt where applicable to develop modular transformations, tests, and deployment patterns; prior hands-on dbt experience is preferred.
• Support Snowflake Cortex-enabled analytics, semantic intelligence, and agent-assisting workflows where applicable.
• Troubleshoot production issues and implement durable long-term solutions.
• Document architectural decisions, semantic definitions, and data lineage.
