Job Summary

Aaratech Inc. is seeking a Data Engineer to help build and maintain data pipelines on cloud platforms. You will develop ETL/ELT workflows, bring data together from multiple systems, and help keep the data that powers reporting and analytics accurate and reliable.

What You Will Do

• Build and maintain ETL/ELT data pipelines using tools such as Azure Data Factory, SSIS, or AWS Glue.

• Pull data together from multiple sources — databases, files, APIs — into clean, usable datasets.

• Write SQL to transform, join, and validate data.

• Use Python scripts to automate routine data tasks.

• Monitor pipelines and help troubleshoot issues when data does not land as expected.

• Work with analysts and business teams to understand what data they need and deliver it.

• Document your pipelines so others can understand and maintain them.

What We Are Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, IT, or a related field — or equivalent hands-on experience.

• 2+ years working with data — ETL development, data integration, SQL development, or database work all count.

• Good SQL skills: comfortable with joins, aggregations, and writing queries against real-world data.

• Experience with at least one ETL tool (Azure Data Factory, SSIS, Informatica, Talend, or similar).

• Basic familiarity with data warehouse concepts (tables, schemas, fact/dimension basics).

• Some Python scripting exposure, or a strong desire to learn it.

• Clear communicator and reliable problem-solver.

Tools You Will Work With

• Cloud: Azure (Data Factory, Synapse) or AWS (Glue, Redshift) — experience with either is fine.

• Databases & warehouses: SQL Server, PostgreSQL, Snowflake, or Databricks.

• Languages: SQL and Python.

• Version control: Git.

• Reporting tools your data will feed: Power BI or Tableau.

Nice to Have (Not Required)

• Any exposure to dbt, Airflow, or Databricks notebooks.

• Awareness of CI/CD or basic DevOps concepts.

• Experience with Power BI or Tableau.

• Certifications such as Azure Data Engineer Associate (DP-203), AWS Data Engineer Associate, or SnowPro Core — helpful but not required.
