Role description
Please include a short cover letter within your resume that briefly explains:
• A Snowflake to Databricks migration you worked on
• Your specific role and responsibilities in that project
• What you personally owned or led during the migration
Applications without a cover letter explaining this experience will not be considered.
Senior Data Engineer (Snowflake to Databricks Migration)
We are looking for a Senior Data Engineer to lead and execute a production-grade data migration from Snowflake to Databricks.
This is a hands-on contract role for someone who has already done real migrations, understands the trade-offs involved, and can deliver independently without excessive guidance.
This is not a learning role and not a support role.
What you will work on
• Own the end-to-end migration from Snowflake to Databricks
• Review existing Snowflake data models, pipelines, queries, and workloads
• Rebuild and optimize pipelines in Databricks using Spark, SQL, and Python
• Handle performance tuning, cost considerations, and reliability post-migration
• Ensure data accuracy and validation throughout the migration
• Partner with stakeholders to minimize disruption to downstream consumers
• Make pragmatic decisions and move fast in a production environment
What we are looking for
• Strong experience as a Senior Data Engineer
• Proven, hands-on experience migrating workloads from Snowflake to Databricks
• Deep experience with Spark, SQL, and Python
• Comfortable working independently in a fast-moving environment
• Experience owning delivery, not just contributing tickets
If you have not led or materially owned a production data migration, this role will not be a fit.
Contract details
• Start: ASAP
• Duration: 12 weeks (extension possible)
• Location: Remote
