Optimise data integration workflows, harmonising data from various sources and using APIs and other tools to move data securely and consistently across systems. Ensure adherence to data governance, quality and security standards by implementing vali-dation checks and protecting sensitive commercial information. Collaborate with data scientists, analysts and architects to understand their needs and pro-vide fit-for-purpose data solutions, including support for data models and algorithms that drive insights. Monitor and maintain data systems to ensure reliability and performance, and perform pre-ventive maintenance to keep operations running. Research and apply the latest data engineering technologies and best practices, and help build a strong capability across data domains through knowledge sharing and collaboration.
