About the role
We are looking for a Lead Data Engineer to design, build, and modernize DRL's cloud-native data platforms on Google Cloud.

- Lead data modeling (dimensional, canonical, and domain-driven) to deliver reusable, well-governed, business-ready data products
- Lead the assessment, planning, and execution of migrating legacy ETL platforms (e.g., SAP BODS) to cloud-native tools such as Airflow, IICS, and PySpark
- Define target-state architecture, migration roadmaps, and validation and reconciliation approaches to keep business running without disruption
- Design and build batch and near-real-time pipelines using BigQuery, Cloud Composer/Airflow, Informatica IICS, and GCP services
