  • Develop and maintain integrations between AWS services (S3, Redshift, Lambda, SQL DBs), Snowflake, and other enterprise systems.
  • Cloud-First Strategy :

  • Drive the migration of legacy systems to cloud platforms, ensuring high availability, security, and performance.
  • Optimize data storage and processing in AWS and Snowflake environments.
  • Governance & Compliance :

  • Ensure solutions meet enterprise requirements for scalability, security, performance, and compliance.
  • Maintain architecture artifacts, solution diagrams, and integration documentation.
  • Ensure compliance with HIPAA regulations, enterprise security policies, and healthcare data privacy standards.

  • Proven experience building data pipelines and ETL / ELT workflows for structured and unstructured data.
  • Experience with unstructured data processing, including OCR (Optical Character Recognition) for extracting text from images and PDFs.
  • Strong understanding of data modeling, data warehousing, and database design principles.
  • Preferred Experience, Skills, and Education :

  • Advanced degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.

  • Familiarity with machine learning workflows and AI-driven data processing.
  • Hands-on experience with data visualization tools (e.g., Tableau, Power BI).
  • Certifications in AWS, Snowflake, or Salesforce.
  • Soft Skills :

  • Strong leadership and communication skills, with the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels.
  • Problem-solving mindset with a focus on delivering scalable, innovative solutions.
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
  • Why Join Us?
