🎭 角色与团队
作为前置部署工程师 - 迁移（FDE），你将与客户和内部团队紧密合作，规划并执行数据迁移到 gaiia 平台——从最初的发现阶段到生产环境中验证的数据。你将结合面向客户的解决方案设计与实际的技术执行，全程负责迁移工作。
💻 你将做的事情
迁移发现与解决方案设计：
- 进行发现会议，了解客户的遗留环境——源系统、数据模型和 OSS/BSS 层。
- 评估并设计迁移方案，记录范围、数据映射、约束条件和切换策略。
- 协助客户和内部利益相关者理解权衡和优先级——哪些内容在范围内，历史数据需要迁移到多远，以及数据如何进行对账。
技术执行：
- 探索不熟悉的源系统，并通过 SQL、API、手动导出和备份提取数据。
- 使用声明式映射文件将数据转换为 gaiia 的标准格式，然后加载、与目标模式进行验证、对账并导入。
- 规划并执行切换：增量迁移、停机考虑因素和回滚——监控生产数据并在上线后解决差异。
交付领导力：
- 全程负责迁移关系——从发现、解决方案设计、执行到切换后的稳定。
- 建立可重复使用的流程和资产——模板、映射规则、操作手册——使未来的迁移更快。
- 作为内部团队在客户数据和迁移考虑方面的专家，提供支持。
- 与产品和工程团队合作，影响迁移工具路线图，并自行贡献工程改进。
🎖️ 必备条件
- 4-6 年以上经验，涵盖面向客户的实施/解决方案设计以及实际的数据或

🎭 Role & Team
As a Forward Deployed Engineer - Migration (FDE), you'll work closely with customers and internal teams to plan and execute data migrations onto the gaiia platform — from initial discovery through to validated data in production. You combine customer-facing solutioning with hands-on technical execution, owning the migration end-to-end.
💻 What You're Going to Do
Migration Discovery & Solutioning:
- Conduct discovery sessions to understand customers' legacy environments — source systems, data models, and OSS/BSS layers.
- Assess and design the migration approach, documenting scope, data mappings, constraints, and cutover strategy.
- Help customers and internal stakeholders understand trade-offs and priorities — what's in scope, how far back to migrate history, and how data will be reconciled.
Technical Execution:
- Explore unfamiliar source systems and extract data via SQL, APIs, manual exports, and backups.
- Transform data into gaiia's standard format using declarative mapping files, then load, validate against target schemas, reconcile, and import.
- Plan and run cutover: delta migrations, downtime considerations, and rollback — monitoring production data and resolving discrepancies after go-live.
Delivery Leadership:
- Own the migration relationship end-to-end — discovery, solutioning, execution, and post-cutover stabilization.
- Build repeatable processes and reusable assets — templates, mapping rules, playbooks — to make future migrations faster.
- Act as a subject matter expert for internal teams needing context on customer data and migration considerations.
- Partner with Product and Engineering to influence the migration tooling roadmap, and contribute engineering improvements yourself.
🎖️ Must-haves
- Experience (4-6+ years) spanning both customer-facing implementation/solutioning AND hands-on data or software engineering.
- Strong SQL and TypeScript/JavaScript (Node) — fluent querying, reshaping, and debugging data in unfamiliar source schemas.
- Strong command of ETL fundamentals — you treat extract → transform → load as a deliberate methodology: staging, repeatable/idempotent loads, full vs. incremental loads, and validation and reconciliation at each stage.
- Track record owning technical projects with external stakeholders — managing scope, timelines, and expectations.
- Experience with messy, poorly documented legacy systems and a bias toward action under ambiguity.
- Familiarity with OSS/BSS, telecom, or billing/CRM data models (e.g. subscribers, services, billing accounts) — or the ability to ramp on unfamiliar domain models quickly.
- Excellent communicator across technical and non-technical audiences, including clients.
- Comfortable being the decision-maker on technical and customer trade-offs.
- Bachelor's degree in a relevant field (e.g., Computer Science, Information Systems), or equivalent practical experience.
- Ability to travel occasionally in the US to support customers during key engagements and go-lives.
💰Salary
