We are seeking an experienced Snowflake Developer / Data Engineer to join a Snowflake implementation programme at an established asset management firm.
This is a highly hands‑on development role, suited to someone with deep Snowflake and SQL expertise who is also confident engaging directly with clients and providing technical guidance to a small development team. The emphasis is on building and delivering solutions, alongside taking ownership of technical discussions and resolving implementation challenges.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, develop and optimise Snowflake data pipelines, SQL transformations and data models.
- Build reliable ingestion processes to bring data into Snowflake from source systems, including platforms such as thinkFolio, where native API connectivity may not be available.
- Assess and implement appropriate integration approaches, including file-based feeds, extracts and scheduled data loads.
- Enable data consumption through Sigma or similar BI and data visualisation tools, ensuring datasets are structured and accessible for reporting and analysis.
- Design and implement Snowflake roles, permissions and access controls, aligned with business requirements and data security needs.
- Work directly with client stakeholders to understand requirements, explain technical options and resolve delivery issues.
- Provide practical technical guidance and code reviews for a small development team while remaining actively involved in development.
- Troubleshoot data quality, integration and performance issues, maintaining clear technical documentation.
- Deep, hands‑on expertise in Snowflake and advanced SQL, including development, troubleshooting and performance optimisation.
- Strong experience delivering data engineering and ETL/ELT solutions.
- Experience integrating data from systems with limited or no native API connectivity.
- Understanding of how Snowflake data is exposed to and consumed by Sigma or comparable reporting and visualisation platforms.
- Strong knowledge of Snowflake permissioning models and role-based access control (RBAC).
- Confident client communication skills, with the ability to translate business requirements into practical technical solutions.
- Experience supporting or guiding other developers while retaining substantial hands‑on delivery responsibility.
- Asset or investment management experience.
- Exposure to thinkFolio or similar investment management platforms.
- Direct experience with Sigma.
- Experience delivering a Snowflake implementation within a small, client‑facing project team.
This opportunity would suit a senior developer or data engineer who enjoys solving complex integration challenges, working closely with stakeholders and taking ownership of hands‑on technical delivery.
