  • Expertise with cloud data platforms; AWS and Azure experience is a strong plus.
  • Proficiency in SQL, Python, and modern data modeling practices.

  • Proven track record of building and maintaining real-time and batch data pipelines at scale.
  • Deep understanding of ETL and ELT paradigms, including traditional ETL and modern ELT tools.
  • Experience with data integration tools (Fivetran, Nexla, etc.) and orchestration platforms.
  • Familiarity with Data Lakehouse architectures, data mesh concepts, and hybrid/multi-cloud strategies.
  • Strong communication, leadership, and stakeholder management skills.
  • Ability to drive scalable architecture decisions through platform systems design and modern engineering patterns.

Benefits
