Mirza K.
Last position:
Agentic Automation and a RAG system
- This project involved extraction of intelligence data to support report writing for a company that provides geopolitical, global, commercial intelligence. The data have been gathered from a number of resources (interview transcripts, online data, internal documents), and then a knowledge base has been build from it. This was the basis of a complex RAG system, that was evaluated against a golden dataset. Agents have been used to find out the contradicting intelligence, the statements supporting each other, and to store back the generated knowledge.
Used: Python, RAG, LangGraph, LangChain, deepeval, MCP

About the technology
Snowflake foundations
Snowflake is a cloud data platform for storing, processing and sharing structured and semi-structured data. Its separation of storage and compute supports flexible workloads without managing database servers. Companies use it for enterprise data warehouses, lakehouse patterns, reporting, machine learning preparation and governed data sharing.
Data workloads
Snowflake specialists design models that turn operational records into trusted information for finance, sales, supply chain, marketing and customer analytics. They build dimensional models, data marts and semantic layers for dashboards and self-service analysis. Streams, tasks and dynamic tables support dependable data movement and incremental processing.
- Centralize data from business systems and files
- Create curated warehouses and analytical marts
- Prepare datasets for reporting and machine learning
- Share governed data with internal or external teams
Ecosystem and tooling
Snowflake work often connects cloud storage and services from AWS, Microsoft Azure or Google Cloud with tools such as dbt, Fivetran, Matillion, Airflow and Kafka. Specialists use SQL, Python, Snowpark and Snowflake APIs for transformation, automation and application workloads. They also work with role-based access, masking policies, row access policies, tags and secure views.
When expertise matters
Companies bring in freelance Snowflake professionals during platform migrations, warehouse redesigns, new analytics initiatives and periods of rapid data growth. External expertise is useful when internal teams need a clear target architecture, faster delivery or stronger controls without adding permanent capacity.
- Move workloads from legacy warehouses to Snowflake
- Replace fragile scripts with tested ELT workflows
- Improve query performance and warehouse usage
- Establish governance, lineage and access controls
- Connect Snowflake to existing business applications
Strong delivery practices
Strong professionals clarify data ownership, freshness needs and access boundaries before building pipelines. They use modular transformations, automated tests, documentation and observability so teams can trust the results. They also understand workload isolation, resource monitors, time travel, zero-copy cloning and secure data sharing rather than treating Snowflake as only a large SQL database.
Working in Germany
Snowflake projects in Germany commonly support industrial operations, insurance, banking, retail, logistics and software businesses. Professionals may collaborate remotely or work with teams on site, depending on security requirements and stakeholder needs. Clear documentation and confident communication in English are often essential, while German can help with local business and compliance discussions.
Frequently asked questions
Everything clients usually want to know about Snowflake, in one place.
Snowflake is used to store, transform and analyze data in the cloud. Companies use it for enterprise warehouses, reporting, data sharing, operational analytics and datasets prepared for machine learning.
Snowflake focuses on managed SQL analytics, governed sharing and separate storage and compute, while Databricks is often chosen for collaborative data engineering, Spark workloads and machine learning. Traditional warehouses may require more infrastructure management and can be less flexible when workloads change.
A strong Snowflake specialist usually brings advanced SQL, dimensional modeling and ELT design. Useful adjacent skills include dbt, Python, cloud storage, Airflow, Kafka, data quality testing, identity management and business intelligence tools.
The needed depth depends on the outcome, not a fixed number of years. A focused data mart may need a specialist who can model and test transformations, while a migration or governance program requires experience with architecture, security, workload performance and organizational change.
Snowflake work is often suitable for remote collaboration because development, documentation and cloud environments are accessible across locations. On-site sessions can still help with sensitive data, architecture workshops or close coordination with German business teams.
Ask how the professional approaches data modeling, testing, access control and cost-aware workload design in Snowflake. Review examples of documented pipelines, migration decisions and monitoring practices, then use a technical discussion to test how clearly they explain trade-offs.
A Snowflake migration starts with an inventory of sources, workloads, dependencies and access rules. The specialist then defines the target model, moves and validates data, rebuilds transformations, tests performance and plans a controlled cutover with clear ownership.
Snowflake supports governed sharing through secure views, roles, masking policies, row access policies and other controls. A qualified professional should connect these features to identity management, data classification, audit needs and the practical permissions required by each team.
The average hourly rate of freelancers in Germany who have used Snowflake in their recent projects is 95 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 763 € based on an 8-hour working day.
