Update data models as reporting and analytical requirements evolve.
Apply established standards for table design, column naming, audit fields, retention, and technical documentation.
Partner with BI developers and analysts to ensure datasets are understandable, trusted, and fit for purpose.
Help improve the maintainability and scalability of existing SQL and data-processing workflows.
Additional Responsibilities
Productionization and Technical Documentation
Create clear technical documentation for data marts, pipelines, APIs, AI agents, and analytical datasets.
Document solution architecture, data flows, source dependencies, business rules, configurations, ownership, and support procedures.
Define source expectations such as data keys, grain, schema, refresh cadence, latency, and change-management considerations.
Support code reviews, version control, testing, deployment preparation, monitoring, and issue resolution.
