Key Responsibilities
Pipeline Development: Build and optimize ETL/ELT pipelines using Dataflow (Apache Beam), Dataproc (Spark), Pub/Sub, and Cloud Functions.
Data Infrastructure: Architect and manage BigQuery, Cloud Storage, and Data Fusion for efficient data ingestion, transformation, and storage.
Team Leadership: Lead a team of 10 engineers, review code, establish data engineering standards, CI/CD, and monitoring (e.g., Cloud Monitoring, Logging).
Performance & Cost: Optimize pipeline performance, query efficiency, and GCP cost management (e.g., slot reservations, partitioning).
Collaboration: Work with data architects, scientists, and analysts to deliver self-service data platforms and support advanced analytics/ML use cases.
Data Quality & Governance: Implement data validation, lineage, and metadata management (e.g., Data Catalog, dbt)
