• Integrate data from multiple sources, both internal and external using third party APIs, ensuring data quality, consistency, and reliability.
• Monitor data pipelines and datasets for performance issues, data quality problems, and errors. Troubleshoot and resolve issues in a timely manner.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including data scientists, analysts, and business stakeholders, to understand data requirements and deliver data solutions that meet business needs.
• Document data engineering processes, data flows, and data models to ensure clarity and maintainability of the data infrastructure.
