  • Experience with Databricks, Spark, or similar distributed data processing frameworks
  • Strong understanding of modern data architecture patterns, including Lakehouse architecture, ELT, and layered data models (bronze/silver/gold)
  • Proven experience designing data models for analytics, including dimensional or domain-oriented approaches
  • Experience driving database and data engineering best practices, including schema design, migrations, and performance optimization
  • Ability to take ownership of technical solutions and drive implementation in environments with limited structure or support
  • Experience building reusable data frameworks, enforcing standards, and improving engineering leverage across datasets and pipelines
  • Experience owning production data systems, including monitoring, debugging, and resolving data pipeline failures
  • Experience working closely with business stakeholders or analysts to translate ambiguous requirements into scalable data solutions.
  • Experience evaluating and adopting new data tech/tools to improve scalability, reliability, productivity
  • Strong record of project execution and completion with experience with agile development practices.
  • Experience with developing source controlled pipelines in a CI/CD environment.
  • Experience working with product analytics data (event tracking, user behavior, experimentation) is a plus
  • Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate effectively across technical and non-technical teams

Education and Experience :

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience; Master's degree preferred

  • Proven ability to design and evolve data models and data pipelines that support analytics at scale, including performance optimization and reliability improvements
  • Experience taking data solutions from concept to production, including monitoring, debugging, and ongoing maintenance
  • Demonstrated ability to operate independently, make technical decisions, and improve data platform standards in environments with limited structure
