  • Performance & Cost Optimization:
    Continuously monitor and tune the performance of data stores and queries on Snowflake, optimizing clustering, indexing, and resource usage for maximum efficiency. Recommend and implement strategies to balance performance with cost (e.g., sizing warehouses, pruning data, leveraging Snowflake features like caching and auto-scaling) so that solutions remain cost-effective and high-performing at scale.

While maintaining a delivery focus, provide thought leadership by recommending appropriate tools or approaches (e.g., when to use particular integration tools or analytics platforms) to best meet client needs. Ensure high client satisfaction by aligning solutions with their strategic objectives and demonstrating tangible value.

Foster an agile, results-driven workflow, helping the team navigate challenges and achieve project milestones on time.
  • Mentor and Develop Talent:
    Mentor junior analytics and data engineers by sharing expertise, best practices, and feedback to accelerate their professional growth.
