• Minerva Data Product Delivery: Builds and maintains data products within the Minerva Engineering Framework (MEF), supporting migration of workloads and historical data from CDP to Minerva’s Lakehouse and Compute account architecture.
• Migration Validation: Validates migrated data products using platform reconciliation tooling, ensuring row counts, schema, and aggregate accuracy between legacy (CDP/Impala) and Minerva (AWS Athena/Lakehouse) sources.

Qualifications

• Minimum requirement of 4 years of relevant work experience. Typically reflects 5 years or more of relevant experience

Preferred Qualifications:

• Cloud Environments: Experience developing data systems on major cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure). Hands-on AWS experience strongly preferred given Minerva’s AWS-native architecture.
• Data Architecture: Hands-on experience building modern data architectures, including data lakes, data lakehouses, and data hubs, along with related capabilities such as ingestion, governance, modeling, and observability.
• Data Ingestion: Demonstrated proficiency in data collection, ingestion tools (Kafka, AWS Glue), and storage formats (Iceberg, Parquet).
• Data Streaming: Experience developing data pipelines with streaming architectures and tools (Confluent Kafka, Apache Flink).
• Data Modeling: Expertise in data transformation and modeling using SQL-based frameworks and orchestration tools (dbt, AWS Glue, Airflow/Astronomer). Deep experience with modeling concepts like SCD and schema evolution.
• Data Transformation: Strong background using Spark for data transformation, including streaming, performance tuning, and debugging with Spark UI.
• Programming: Advanced programming skills in Python, Java, Scala, or similar languages. Expert-level proficiency in SQL for data manipulation and optimization.
• DevOps: Demonstrated experience in DevOps practices, including code management, CI/CD, and deployment strategies.
• Data Governance: Strong background in data governance principles, including data quality, privacy, and security considerations for data product development and consumption.
• Snowflake & Information Warehouse: Working knowledge of Snowflake, including warehouse/database/schema design and the dbt-Snowflake adapter, for provisioning and serving Minerva data products in the Information Warehouse layer.
• Platform Migration Experience: Prior experience migrating on-premises or legacy platform workloads (e.g., Cloudera, Hadoop, Impala) to a cloud-native lakehouse, including data reconciliation and historical/CDC data loads.
• Engineering Framework & Tooling: Familiarity with Git-based CI/CD delivery for data products (e.g., Vela CI/CD or similar pipeline tooling), Data Product Package structures, and metadata/catalog tools (e.g., Atlan) for lineage and discovery.
• Domain & Source Systems: Exposure to SAP source systems and food/CPG domain data (e.g., supply chain, procurement, commercial/sales) is a plus, given FDEAMR’s portfolio scope.
