We are seeking a Data Engineer with strong financial‑services experience to design and optimize GCP‑based data pipelines supporting retail credit risk, regulatory reporting, and RDARR (BCBS 239) compliance.

• Develop reusable, scalable transformation frameworks for regulatory and analytics teams.

• Data quality: Implement validation, reconciliation, and automated checks for completeness, integrity, duplicates, outliers, and business‑rule adherence.

• Ensure reliability and uptime of production pipelines, meeting RTO/RPO expectations.
• Support EOD/MTD/risk reporting cycles and investigate pipeline issues quickly to prevent downstream delays (e.g., IFRS9, stress testing, RCR‑CDS).
