Role Overview
This specialist position focuses on data validation and quality assurance within a large-scale database migration program.

Candidates will collaborate with engineering teams to shape testing approaches for transactional workloads and analytical platforms during ongoing environmental development.
Key Responsibilities
- Perform source-to-target data validation, reconciliation, and completeness testing.
- Validate complex database migration pipelines, schema conversions, and data-type mappings.
- Test historical and incremental/change data capture loads across multiple environments.
- Validate data quality, transformation rules, and data cleansing logic for third-party data feeds.
- Build and maintain repeatable or automated validation frameworks to replace manual testing efforts.
- Develop reusable testing libraries to streamline verification across transactional and analytical data flows.
- Verify data flows between transactional systems and downstream analytical platforms.
- Collaborate with business and development teams to derive testing requirements from design models and user stories.

Experience: Significant practical experience in database testing, data migration validation, and data reconciliation projects is required. Candidates must demonstrate a background in specialized data testing rather than traditional application testing.

Preferred Qualifications
- Practical experience with cloud data migration tools, cloud storage, orchestrators, and relational database services.
- Experience utilizing modern development tools, including AI-assisted programming utilities, to optimize testing workflows.
