About The Position

Arctiq is a global, intelligence-driven technology services company delivering professional and managed services across Hybrid Cloud Infrastructure, Networking & Connected Experiences, Cybersecurity, Data & AI, Autonomous Operations & Intelligence, and Enterprise Service Management. We help organizations operate, secure, and modernize complex environments by unifying infrastructure, networking, data, security, automation, and observability under a single, integrated operating model. Our work focuses on helping customers reduce operational friction, improve resilience, and make better, faster decisions as their environments evolve. Arctiq builds on decades of industry expertise and a customer-centric ethos to deliver exceptional value to clients across diverse industries. This is an on-site, contract opportunity for one of Arctiq’s clients. The ETL Developer will support the organization’s transition from SQL Server–based data infrastructure to Snowflake.

This role will design, build, and optimize ELT pipelines and enable high-quality, well-governed analytic datasets to support research, evaluation, reporting, and decision-making across the organization. This position plays a critical role in modernizing the organization’s data infrastructure while ensuring data quality, trust, and usability for research and analytics. The work directly supports evidence-based decision-making by enabling timely access to reliable, well-structured data.
