  • Liaise with business and technical SMEs to understand the business processes and how users interact with data, highlighting and cataloguing key legacy data sources.
  • Develop and implement a catalogue of data quality rules, engaging with business SMEs to review and validate these.
  • Responsible for the delivery of the migration template mapping and business sign off, ensuring this is completed in line with the programme plan.
  • Drive solutions to business and technical mapping challenges, collaborating with the Data Migration Lead and Migration Project Manager where escalations are required.
  • Responsible for the build, test, and deployment of the migration transformation code inline with the mapping requirements and agreed scope.
  • Develop and implement programmatic constraint checks over the transformed data inline with target data dictionaries / structures.
  • Run the migration processes, leading to the production of valid load files in support of the programme data cycles.
