Description

Sydney | Hybrid | 12-Month Fixed Term Contract | Immediate Start

I'm working with a specialist technology consultancy delivering a large-scale data program for a property-focused organisation undergoing a major ERP transformation.

This is a hands-on role suited to a Data Engineer / Analytics Engineer who enjoys building pipelines and rolling up their sleeves to help design and administer a Snowflake platform in a delivery-focused project team.

You'll support the implementation of a new ERP by ingesting legacy data sources, building pipelines into Snowflake, and enabling reporting through Power BI. You'll also support the Snowflake environment design, security, and day-to-day administration, working alongside senior delivery leads.

This role has an immediate start and will run for an initial 12-month engagement, with a key program milestone in August.

  • Build and maintain data pipelines into Snowflake
  • Ingest, model and transform legacy data sources (ELT/ETL)
  • Write and optimise SQL for performance and reliability
  • Build and support Power BI dashboards and datasets
  • Support Snowflake platform design and administration, including:
    • Role-based access control (RBAC), users/roles, permissions
    • Warehouses, resource monitoring, performance/cost optimisation
    • Data loading patterns, schemas, environments (dev/test/prod where applicable)
    • Operational support, monitoring, incident triage and BAU post go-live
  • Work closely with delivery teams in a managed services-style model
  • 3-5 years experience in a Data Engineer / Analytics Engineer / Snowflake Engineer role
  • Hands-on Snowflake experience including exposure to administration (not just querying)
  • Strong SQL skills (optimisation mindset)
  • Experience building reporting in Power BI
  • Exposure to Azure data environments (ADLS/ADF/Azure SQL etc.)
  • Solid understanding of end-to-end data pipelines and production support
  • ERP or legacy system migration experience
  • Exposure to platform administration / managed services
  • Familiarity with data security/governance practices (RBAC, auditing)
  • Basic CI/CD exposure for data (Git, deployment workflows)
  • Long-term engagement with stability
  • Immediate start
  • Greenfield Snowflake platform with real delivery ownership
  • Collaborative team environment with strong technical support
