Consultant, Data Engineer (JDE / SAP DS)

BizFirst is supporting our client in identifying a Senior Consultant, Data Engineer to lead the legacy ETL reverse-engineering and pipeline migration workstream for enterprise clients. This is a hands-on contract role for a data engineer with 5+ years of experience and a consulting background.
