Work with DBAs and application teams to define job dependencies, critical paths, and data lineage. Establish execution logs, audit trails, and SLA monitoring dashboards. Participate in code reviews, documentation, and onboarding of new pipelines.
Mandatory Skills
5+ years of Python development experience focused on automation and data workflows. 2+ years of Apache Airflow experience building and deploying production-grade DAGs. Strong understanding of Oracle 19c, including SQL tuning and PL/SQL concepts. Experience with job scheduling systems like RunMyJobs, Autosys, and their orchestration via Python/Airflow. Proficient in debugging across logs, database layers, and filesystem operations. Skilled in building REST API integrations, SFTP-based file movements, and parameterized job execution.
Highly Desired / Preferred Skills
