Job description

  • Primary responsibilities of the Data Modeler include designing, developing, and maintaining enterprise-grade data models that support critical business initiatives, analytics, and operational systems. The ideal candidate is proficient in industry-standard data modeling tools (with hands-on expertise in Erwin Data Modeler) and has deep experience with Oracle and SQL Server databases. The candidate will also translate complex business requirements into robust, scalable, and normalized data models while ensuring alignment with data governance, performance, and integration standards., * Design and develop conceptual, logical, and physical data models using Erwin Data Modeler (required).
  • Generate, review, and optimize DDL (Data Definition Language) scripts for database objects (tables, views, indexes, constraints, partitions, etc.).
  • Perform forward and reverse engineering of data models from existing Oracle and SQL Server databases.
  • Collaborate with data architects, DBAs, ETL developers, and business stakeholders to gather and refine requirements.
  • Ensure data models adhere to normalization standards (3NF/BCNF), data integrity, and referential integrity.
  • Support dimensional modeling (star/snowflake schemas) for data warehousing and analytics use cases.
  • Conduct model reviews, impact analysis, and version control using Erwin or comparable tools.
  • Participate in data governance initiatives, including metadata management, naming standards, and lineage documentation.
  • Optimize models for performance, scalability, and maintainability across large-scale environments.
  • Assist in database migrations, schema comparisons, and synchronization between environments (Dev/QA/Prod).
  • Assist in optimizing existing Data Solutions
  • Follow Oncor’s Data Governance Policy and Information Classification and Protection Policy.
  • Participate in design reviews and take guidance from the Data Architecture team members.

Requirements

  • 5 or more years of hands-on experience in data modeling, data architecture, or database design roles.
  • Expert proficiency with Erwin Data Modeler (version 9.x or higher preferred) - including subject areas, model templates, DDL generation, forward/reverse engineering, model versioning, and complete compare functionality.
  • Advanced SQL skills and deep understanding of Oracle (11g/12c/19c/21c) including SQL, PL/SQL, schema design, and performance tuning fundamentals as they relate to data model design.
  • Demonstrated experience building both normalized (3NF) transactional models and dimensional models (star/snowflake) for reporting and analytics.
  • Strong command of DDL - creating and modifying tables, indexes, constraints, sequences, synonyms, and materialized views.
  • Solid understanding of data modeling theory: entity-relationship modeling, normalization/denormalization, cardinality, keys, and referential integrity.
  • Solid grasp of database internals: indexing strategies, partitioning, clustering, and query execution plans.
  • Experience with data modeling best practices: normalization, denormalization, surrogate keys, and slowly changing dimensions (SCD)
  • Experience producing and maintaining data dictionaries, metadata, and data lineage documentation.
  • Familiarity with version control (eg, Git) and model comparison/diff tools.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to clearly explain modeling decisions to both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Self-Motivated, with an ability to multi-task
  • Works well in a team environment
