* Configure and manage integrations using DIP/CDQ, EDGE and Lineage Harvester
* Ensure consistent ingestion of metadata, schemas and lineage from multiple enterprise systems
* Validate connectivity and prerequisites with DBAs, ETL and infrastructure teams (drivers, credentials, network requirements)
* Investigate and resolve incidents relating to integrations, lineage ingestion and platform availability
* Maintain consistency across DEV, QA and PROD environments
* Produce clear documentation, runbooks and operational updates
* Support access control and audit-readiness requirements
* Contribute to automation and continuous improvement initiatives
Essential Skills and Experience
* Hands-on experience in an IT engineering, platform administration or integration engineering role
* Strong understanding of enterprise platform operations (configuration, monitoring, troubleshooting)
* Working knowledge of Oracle and/or SQL Server and the ability to use SQL for validation and connectivity testing
* Experience working with infrastructure teams including DBAs and network teams
* Experience supporting enterprise systems through incident management and root-cause analysis
* Strong stakeholder communication skills across technical and non-technical teams
* Comfortable producing technical documentation and operational reporting
Desirable
* Experience operating Collibra or a similar metadata/governance platform
* Exposure to DIP/CDQ, EDGE or Lineage Harvester
* Understanding of REST APIs and JSON
* Exposure to Python or other Scripting languages
* Experience within data integration or ETL environments
