What will you do?

• Collaborate with business stakeholders to define requirements and translate them into technical specifications.
• Implement solutions within the cloud platform, ensuring they meet both business needs and technical standards.
• Translate source data models into NIBC's centralized target data model.

• Work closely with business domains, IT specialists, and colleagues within the Data & Analytics department.
• Maintain clear documentation of data models, transformations, and business logic.
• Stay current with industry trends and best practices in analytics engineering, DBT, data modelling, and cloud data platforms.
• Implement business controls, data quality checks, and observability solutions using DBT, Soda, or comparable tooling.

Your team

We created the Data & Analytics department to enable our business to deliver high-quality data products using a modern cloud data platform. The mission of this technology-driven department is to ensure that data can be sourced, ingested, integrated, and consumed through well-designed, automated, and easy-to-use services and frameworks.
