The ideal candidate has strong ETL, SQL, and data migration experience within insurance domain systems. Required Technical Skills

• Strong hands‑on experience with SSIS (SQL Server Integration Services).
• Expertise in SQL Server (T‑SQL, stored procedures, triggers, indexing, query optimization).
• Experience extracting from PostgreSQL/Aurora using ODBC/OLEDB/.NET providers.
• Experience with data migration, large datasets, and performance tuning.

Guidewire Migration Knowledge (Preferred)

• Familiarity with Guidewire PolicyCenter, ClaimCenter, or BillingCenter data models.
• Understanding of Guidewire Aurora database structures for PC/CC/BC.
• Experience working on Guidewire version upgrades or cloud migrations is a plus.

Other Skills

• Experience with ETL job scheduling (SQL Server Agent, Control‑M, Autosys, etc.).
• Experience using Git, Azure DevOps, Jenkins, or other CI/CD tools.
• Ability to write reconciliation scripts in SQL and/or Python (optional).
• Strong understanding of data quality, audit, and compliance practices.

Qualifications & Experience

• 5–8 years of ETL development experience, with at least 3+ years in SSIS.
• Prior experience in migration projects, preferably Guidewire or other insurance platforms.
• Strong analytical skills and ability to investigate data anomalies.
• Experience working in Agile/Scrum environments.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or equivalent experience.

Key Responsibilities

• ETL Design & Development: develop SSIS packages to extract data from Guidewire Aurora (PostgreSQL) and load it into SQL Server databases; design scalable and optimized ETL frameworks supporting incremental loads, full loads, and delta logic; configure secure connectivity between cloud Aurora DB and on‑prem SQL Server; implement transformations, business rules, surrogate key management, and referential integrity through ETL.
• Nightly Batch Cycle Setup: design and orchestrate nightly ETL batch processes using SQL Server Agent or enterprise schedulers; implement error‑handling, retry logic, logging, and alerting for batch jobs; monitor performance and optimize slow‑running jobs to meet ETL SLAs.
• Data Validation & Reconciliation: conduct field‑level and record‑level reconciliation between Aurora and SQL Server tables; develop comparison scripts to validate counts, checksums/hashes, and business‑critical attributes; identify mismatches, perform root‑cause analysis, and coordinate with database and Guidewire functional teams to resolve issues; maintain audit trail, data lineage documentation, and reconciliation dashboards.
• Support Guidewire Upgrade/Migration: collaborate with Guidewire functional consultants to understand PC/CC/BC data models and changes introduced by the upgrade; perform data profiling to identify data gaps or transformation needs stemming from version differences; support parallel runs, cutover planning, and post‑migration validation; ensure ETL processes align with Guidewire data model standards and release cycles.
• Documentation & Delivery: create detailed technical design documents (TDD), mapping sheets, and ETL flow diagrams; maintain SSIS source code in version control (Git/Azure DevOps); provide post‑deployment support, including defect resolution, optimizations, and enhancements.
