Scored from the posting itself — how clearly the role is described, how much it says about pay and benefits, and how recently it was listed. Not a judgement of Monks as an employer.

What you need

  • 2+ years of hands-on production experience with dbt Core
  • Proven hands-on experience with Delta Lake, Unity Catalog, and Databricks SQL Warehouses
  • Exceptional skills with CTEs, window functions, and converting legacy Python-based ETL frameworks into dbt SQL models
  • Experience working in PR-reviewed environments with automated CI/CD testing gates (e.g., GitHub Actions)
  • Strong commitment to software engineering best practices and documentation-first development

Nice to have

  • Experience validating output parity against production data
  • Familiarity with third-party connectors (e.g., Fivetran)
  • Experience in media/e-commerce analytics or async-first remote delivery

Worth weighing

  • Fixed-term contract may imply limited job security
  • Role involves significant legacy migration work, which may not appeal to all candidates
  • No salary or specific benefits mentioned in the posting
