afarax is looking for a freelance Data Engineer Expert. We need you!

The project:

Our client in the banking sector is looking for a Data Engineer Expert to join their team.

Function description:

The Datahub is currently structured with the following layers:

• The raw layer contains the extracts from operational systems
• The conformed layer consolidates the sources in a single data model
• The exposition layer exposes the data to the end users, via datamarts.

This structure could evolve in the future towards a Data Vault model;

The role of the analyst is the following:

• For the raw layer, he analyzes which data extracts are needed from the operational systems to feed the raw layer
• For the conformed layer, he analyzes which data must be propagated to the conformed layer and how to calculate new data based on business rules. He also designs the data model of the conformed layer
• For the exposition layer, he designs the data model of datamarts (for example with Star Schema), to facilitate the consumption by the business (via Data Visualization tools)

The analyst defines the requirements (data models, data dictionary, data mappings) for the developers, and validate their developments.
