• Develop HiveQL queries and tables in CDP (Cloudera Data Platform) environment
• Integrate data from Teradata EDW and CDP Hive through Trino for unified semantic access
• Create cross-platform queries and federated views using Trino connectors
• Implement partitioning, bucketing, and optimization strategies in Hive tables

Implementation & Optimization

• Translate design documents (HLD, LLD) and mapping specifications into SQL code
• Develop ETL/ELT processes to populate datamarts from EDW sources
• Optimize query performance using indexing (PI, SI, NUSI), statistics, partitioning, and aggregations
• Conduct unit testing, data validation, and reconciliation between source and target
• Debug and troubleshoot performance issues in datamarts and semantic layers

Collaboration & Documentation

• Work closely with datamart designers, EDW developers, BI teams, and business analysts
• Implement business requirements and KPI calculations as per specifications
• Create technical documentation: SQL scripts, deployment guides, data lineage
• Support UAT activities and assist business users in validating data accuracy
• Provide production support and resolve data or performance issues
