About The Position

Peregrine Advisors is a data and technology innovation hub and a Benefit Corporation working at the center of the federal government's mission. They are looking for highly motivated contributors who thrive when trusted to own a hard problem and equipped to deliver the solution. Your first assignment is to build and maintain queries, stored procedures, and views that make a federal agency's enterprise data warehouse useful, working on Amazon Redshift and its relational neighbors under a senior developer's design. You will grow toward owning physical design yourself. The work is real, hard, and it matters. It is also where you start, not the shape of your career here: we hire people, not seats, and we move our best to where the hardest problems are.

Requirements

Solid SQL on a modern warehouse (Amazon Redshift) and relational databases.
Experience writing stored procedures and views that hold up.
Working craft around it: query tuning, data loading, and connectivity, with version control and clean delivery.
The drive to grow toward owning physical design.
Judgment to work where accuracy and auditability are not optional.
U.S. citizenship.
Ability to obtain a Public Trust determination.

Nice To Haves

Experience with Amazon Redshift.
Experience with PostgreSQL.
Experience with SQL Server.
Experience with S3-to-Redshift loads.
Experience with version control.
Experience with query tuning.
Experience with data loading.
Experience with connectivity.
Experience with governed access.

Responsibilities

Build and maintain queries, stored procedures, and views on Amazon Redshift, PostgreSQL, and SQL Server that turn raw data into something people can use.
Develop the plumbing behind them: query tuning, S3-to-Redshift loads, and connectivity, all under governed access.
In time, help build new capabilities, tools, and lines of business for the firm.
