Snowflake developer

• Primary skills:Technology->Data on Cloud-DataStore->Snowflake

Key Responsibilities: Snowflake Platform Engineering

• Design, implement, and maintain Snowflake environments including warehouses, databases, schemas, roles, and resource monitors.
• Optimize query performance and warehouse sizing through workload analysis, clustering strategies, and best-practice tuning.
• Implement secure access controls using RBAC, ensuring least-privilege access and audit-friendly governance.
• Monitor platform health, usage, and cost; recommend improvements to balance performance and spend. Data Transformation with dbt
• Build and maintain dbt models, tests, and documentation to deliver reliable, analytics-ready datasets.
• Establish modular transformation patterns (staging, intermediate, marts) and enforce consistent naming/versioning standards.
• Implement data quality checks using dbt tests and support root-cause analysis for data issues. Operational Excellence
• Support release and deployment workflows for Snowflake/dbt changes with strong change management practices.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to translate business requirements into scalable data solutions.
• Create clear technical documentation and runbooks for ongoing operations an Minimum Qualifications:
• 3–5 years of experience in data platform engineering, systems engineering, or a related role.

• Hands-on experience with dbt (Data Build Tool) including model development, testing, and documentation.
• Strong SQL skills and experience working with structured datasets and transformation logic.
• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent in Engineering/Computer Science or related fields (BTech/BE/BSc or equivalent). Preferred Qualifications:
• Experience designing dimensional models (star/snowflake schemas) and building curated data marts for analytics use cases.
• Familiarity with CI/CD practices for analytics engineering (version control, automated testing, controlled deployments).
• Experience implementing data observability practices and operational monitoring for pipelines and warehouse workloads.
• Exposure to cost governance in Snowflake (warehouse optimization, query profiling, usage analytics).
• Postgraduate qualification (MTech/MCA/MSc or equivalent) is a plus. Good to have skills: Git, CI/CD, Data Modeling, Data Quality/Observability, Python
