  • Troubleshoot data migration issues, optimize performance, and provide post-migration support.
  • Create and maintain documentation for ETL workflows, data migration scripts, and configuration settings.
  • Collaborate closely with stakeholders to provide status updates and resolve data-related challenges.
  • Stay up-to-date with the latest data engineering tools, technologies, and best practices.
