Lineage, access control, column masking, PII classification, and data stewardship are designed into every domain from day one using Unity Catalog and DataHub.

What You'll Do Design, build, and optimise data pipelines, models, and data products using Databricks, dbt, SQL, and PySpark, transforming fragmented business data into trusted and reusable assets Build and maintain semantic models that power reporting, self-service analytics, conversational analytics, and Databricks Genie Implement governance capabilities using Unity Catalog, including lineage, access controls, data classification, and data quality standards across every domain you deliver Contribute to DataHub adoption through metadata management, lineage capture, and data ownership standards that improve discoverability and trust Partner with business stakeholders to understand requirements and translate t
