• Oversee data-related requests and requirements, ensuring data consistency and quality.
• Collaborate with multiple teams, stakeholders, and external service providers.
• Coordinate and review database changes, assessing their correctness and business relevance.
• Coordinate activities and manage requirements at the intersection of technology, data, and business.

Requirements

• Strong proficiency in JavaScript and/or TypeScript.
• Experience working with relational databases, particularly PostgreSQL. Experience with other relational databases is also acceptable.
• Practical knowledge of data modelling, entity relationships, and database schema design.
• Ability to assess database changes and verify their alignment with the existing architecture and business requirements.
