  • Automation & Optimization: Implement automation solutions for ETL/migration
    processes to improve efficiency and reduce manual intervention.
  • Monitoring & Troubleshooting: Monitor and troubleshoot migration pipelines,
    addressing issues promptly to ensure smooth operations.
  • Documentation & Process Improvement: Document migration processes,
    contribute to process improvement initiatives, and ensure adherence to best
    practices.
  • Technical Support & Incident Resolution: Provide technical support during
    incident resolution related to migration pipelines and data discrepancies.
  • Agile Participation: Actively participate in all agile scrum meetings such as daily
    standups, refinement sessions, and retrospectives.
  • Innovation & Continuous Improvement: Propose and implement new ideas to
    improve existing products and services, fostering a culture of innovation.
  • Code Review & Mentorship: Perform code reviews for other engineers, ensuring
    code quality and knowledge sharing within the team.
  • Stakeholder Communication: Effectively communicate with respective
    stakeholders, ensuring that all information is transmitted correctly and to the right
    audience.
