Manage and optimize schema designs, partitioning, and clustering in Google BigQuery to ensure cost-effective and high-performance querying.

Implement and scale data quality and auditing frameworks using GCP Dataplex with centralized rules metadata configuration.

Design and maintain robust API integrations (e.g., EAMS, TrendMicro, and other threat detection platforms) to ingest critical security logs.

[Preferred/Good to Have] Configure and manage Cribl Stream pipelines (sources, destinations, routes, and functions) to parse, mask, enrich, and route security logs.

[Preferred/Good to Have] Implement log reduction strategies in Cribl to optimize data ingestion and lower downstream storage costs.

Partner with security teams to deliver actionable data products, reporting views, and tactical dashboards to prevent service outages.

Education: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Data Science, Information Technology, or a related technical field (or equivalent combination of education and experience).

Experience: 8+ years of professional experience in Data Engineering, Cloud Data Warehousing, or software development.

Cloud Expertise: 5+ years of hands-on experience designing and implementing production-grade solutions on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), specifically utilizing native services such as Google BigQuery, Cloud Run/Functions, and Cloud Storage, Dataflow, PubSub

Programming & Querying: High proficiency in Python and advanced SQL for building, optimizing, and troubleshooting complex ETL/ELT pipelines.

Collaboration: Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a proven ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams in an agile environment.
