About Zinnov

Zinnov is a global management consulting firm that helps organizations make decisions that actually get used — and deliver results that matter. For over two decades, we’ve partnered with leading enterprises, high-growth technology companies, and investors to answer some of the toughest questions they face:

  • Where should we invest?

  • How do we scale globally?

  • What capabilities will win in the next decade?

Our work shapes market entry strategies, global operating models, M&A decisions, and long-term growth bets. We’re known for being data-led, execution-focused, and outcome-driven — not opinion-heavy slideware.

At Zinnov, how you work matters as much as what you deliver. We value independent thinking, crisp communication, and early ownership. With 450+ professionals across 10 global offices, we work across industries including Digital Services, ER&D, Enterprise Software, Semiconductors, Healthcare, BFSI, Automotive, Media & Telecom, and Private Equity.

Zinnov isn’t for everyone. It’s for people who want steep learning curves, honest feedback, and the chance to see their work influence real business decisions — not just presentations.

    • Design and implement Medallion pipelines (Bronze → Silver → Gold) across Finance and Hiring data.
    • Build reconciliation and gating logic to ensure only validated data reaches Gold.

Multi-tenant Data Modeling

  • Design multi-tenant PostgreSQL schemas with row-level security (RLS) for tenant isolation.
    • Implement SCD2 patterns for historical tracking of hiring/finance records.
    • Build cross-domain enrichment pipelines (e.g., Finance + Hiring joins for cost-per-FTE and related KPIs).

APIs & Platform Integration

  • Build and maintainFastAPIendpoints consumed by the UI and AI layers.
    • Partner closely with DevOps to deploy orchestrated pipelines on Azure (e.g., Prefect).

What You Bring

    • Strong Python for pipelines, transformations, and APIs.
    • Experience with orchestration tooling (Prefect/Airflow or similar).
    • Hands-on exposure to Medallion architecture and SCD2 in practice.

Key Skills

  • Data governance mindset—treat pipelines andGoldoutputs as platform contracts.
    • Strong debugging, performance tuning, and reliability orientation.
    • Comfort building for scale and reuse in a multi-tenant environment.

What Success Looks Like – Global Excellence (GE)

  • Data pipelines runpredictably—highreliability, clean promotions to Gold, minimal rework.
    • Tenant isolation is robust—RLS works consistently and safely at scale.
    • KPIs are reconcilable—Finance and Hiring views are accurate and auditable.
    • Downstream teams move faster—AI and UI features ship with confidence due to strong data foundations.
