  • Collaborating closely with the project lead to ensure data integrity and performance.

Requirements

  • Strong SQL Proficiency: Must be highly comfortable with window functions, complex joins, aggregations, and data validation.

  • Reliability: Must be able to work independently, communicate proactively, and meet deadlines without being chased.
  • Availability: Must be available to overlap with 4 PM to 1 AM IST on most days (suitable for Europe or US morning time zones).
  • Work Style: Fully remote and async-friendly.

How to Apply

If you are interested, please send a DM with the following information:
