• Document designs to foster knowledge sharing across the organization and create agreement on what we're building

• Financial Services industry experience is an asset, preferably interacting with data flowing from Broadridge Dataphile or ISM back-office applications, and/or trading applications
• Experience with Snowflake or a competing cloud data platform is desirable
• Ability to thrive in a busy and evolving, wealth management technology environment
• Experience with SSRS, SSIS and SSAS preferred
• Experience with the Azure data platform preferred
