About This Role
This is a hands-on technical role embedded within large-scale digital transformation initiatives, specifically in the banking sector. You won’t just move data; you will design the entire migration roadmap, ensure data integrity across legacy and modern systems, and troubleshoot inconsistencies during critical go-live phases. The role suits an IT professional who thrives under pressure, enjoys solving data puzzles, and can communicate technical decisions to non-technical stakeholders in a fast-paced project environment.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The listed requirements point to a hybrid profile: someone who combines deep SQL and ETL skills with the discipline of structured project execution. The emphasis on 3+ years of experience suggests the employer expects you to have handled at least one full migration cycle independently—not just assisted. The mention of Core Banking projects implies familiarity with financial data models, regulatory compliance around data accuracy, and the high stakes of banking system transitions.
How to Approach This Application
When applying, lead with concrete examples of migration cycles you have managed from end to end—mention specific source-to-target systems, data volumes (e.g., millions of records), and the reconciliation methods you used. Highlight any experience with banking or financial data, even if it was in a different context. The employer will also value your ability to document migration processes clearly, so consider attaching a brief sample of a migration report or data mapping you have created. Emphasize your comfort with cutover weekends and post-migration validation tasks, as these are often the most stressful phases.
Who This Role Suits
This role is best suited for a mid-career data professional who enjoys structured, high-responsibility project work and wants to gain deep expertise in banking systems transformation. Given the niche skill set and the specific sector, competition will be moderate but candidates with direct banking migration experience will have a strong edge.
The Data Migration Specialist will lead data migration activities during Core Banking and digital transformation projects, ensuring data accuracy, integrity, and successful system cutover.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop data migration strategies and execution plans.
- Perform data mapping between source and target systems.
- Extract, cleanse, transform, and validate data.
- Execute mock and production migration cycles.
- Perform reconciliation and quality assurance activities.
- Resolve data quality issues and inconsistencies.
- Support go-live and post-migration validation activities.
- Prepare migration reports and technical documentation.
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Statistics, or related field.
- Minimum 3 years of experience in data migration projects.
- Strong knowledge of SQL and ETL processes.
- Experience with banking data migration is highly preferred.
- Familiarity with Oracle, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, or MySQL databases
