Job Title
Key Responsibilities
Design, write, and execute test cases and SQL-based validations for ETL/ELT pipelines and data ingestion jobs.
Perform source-to-target (S2T) reconciliation against the mapping specification — counts, values, and transformation rules.
Validate data transformations: business rules, derivations, aggregations, joins, lookups, and cleansing logic.
Test batch, incremental / change-data-capture (CDC), and streaming ingestion, including re-run and recovery behavior.
Validate dimensional models — fact and dimension tables, surrogate/natural keys, referential integrity, and SCD handling.
Build and maintain automated data-quality checks and regression suites; embed them as gates in CI/CD.
Log, track, and triage defects; partner with data engineers to root-cause and retest.
Perform performance and volume testing to confirm loads complete within SLA / batch windows.
Contribute to data-quality frameworks, audit/control checks, lineage documentation, and reporting.
Required Skills & Qualifications
Strong SQL — complex joins, window functions, aggregations, set operations, and analytical queries for validation.
Solid grasp of data warehousing and dimensional (Kimball) modeling — facts, dimensions, grain, and SCDs.
Hands-on ETL/ELT testing experience with the org's stack [e.g., Informatica / Talend / SSIS / dbt / Azure Data Factory / AWS Glue].
Understanding of the data-quality dimensions: completeness, accuracy, consistency, validity, uniqueness, and timeliness.
Experience testing both batch and incremental / CDC pipelines, including reject handling and idempotent re-runs.
Scripting for test automation — Python (pandas) or equivalent.
Familiarity with cloud data platforms [Snowflake / BigQuery / Databricks / Synapse] and/or big-data (Spark, Hive).
Version control (Git), CI/CD pipelines, and defect tracking (JIRA).
BI/report validation exposure (Power BI / Tableau) is a plus.
Should understand Linux systems
