- Experience with relational databases (e.g., Sybase ASE, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, PostgreSQL) and Not Only SQL databases (e.g., InterSystems Cache)
- Familiarity with ETL/ELT Tools (e.g., Wherescape, Alteryx, Birst, Streamsets, Informatica PowerCenter) and BI/Reporting Tools (e.g., Birst, Tableau, BusinessObjects)
- Knowledge of general programming (e.g., Python, R, Java, C#) and Big Data Platforms (e.g., Cloudera Data Hub)
Whatever your role, we reward performance and behaviour with a package that looks after all the things that are important to you. Here are some of the benefits we offer:
- The opportunity to participate in our annual, performance-related bonus plan and valuable share schemes
- Generous pension contribution
