  • 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
