## Description

At OZ we are looking for a Lead Data Engineer who will:

  
· Serve as the technical lead for the project—owning solution design decisions, guiding implementation standards, and mentoring other engineers through coaching, reviews, and knowledge sharing.

· Design, develop, and maintain complex ETL pipelines using Databricks, ensuring scalable, high-performance data integration across multiple source systems.

· Implement and optimize medallion architecture within Databricks, establishing clear data zones (raw, curated, trusted) to support governed, enterprise-wide reporting.

· Develop and refine dimensional data models that enable unified, analytics-ready views of business domains and support automated dashboarding and KPI frameworks.

· Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams (data stewards, IT, business stakeholders) to translate operational requirements into technical solutions, proactively clarifying dependencies and driving alignment.

· Contribute to architectural decisions, leveraging your expertise to recommend best practices, challenge assumptions, and ensure data platform durability and flexibility.

· Identify and address integration challenges, data quality issues, and process bottlenecks early, providing actionable insights and thoughtfully pushing back when project risks or inefficiencies arise.

· Support knowledge transfer and documentation, empowering colleagues and clients to maintain and evolve data solutions independently.

## Requirements

· Databricks Expertise: 3–5 years of hands-on experience developing in Databricks, with relevant certifications (attach proof). Proven ability to build, optimize, and troubleshoot production-grade ETL pipelines.

· Medallion Architecture: Demonstrated experience designing and implementing medallion data models (raw, curated, trusted zones) in Databricks environments.

· Dimensional Modeling: Strong skills in developing dimensional models to support business intelligence, reporting, and single source of truth requirements.

· Complex ETL Development: Advanced proficiency in orchestrating data ingestion, transformation, and integration workflows across multiple systems and formats.

· Business Acumen: Ability to understand operational requirements, translate them into technical deliverables, and communicate the business impact of engineering decisions.

· Self-Starter: Demonstrated capacity to take initiative, work independently, and drive projects forward in ambiguous or evolving contexts.

· Azure Ecosystem (Preferred): Experience with Azure Data Lake, Data Factory, and related services is a strong advantage but not required.

· Data Visualization Design (Preferred): Experience with human centric design principles with data visualization tools such as Power BI, Qlik, or Tableau.

· Clear Communication: Proactive, constructive communication skills with the confidence to provide feedback, challenge assumptions, and advocate for best practices.

· Embrace OZ Digital’s values in daily work: adapting and learning, focusing on results, working collaboratively, maintaining a positive outlook, and leading with empathy.

· Actively participate in a culture of mutual support, continuous improvement, and openness to new ideas.

· Demonstrate the ability to provide insights and push back constructively when necessary, always with the goal of achieving the best outcomes for the team and project.
