- Design, develop, and maintain scalable ETL/ELT pipelines for batch and real-time processing, including high-frequency time-series ingestion.
- Evolve the Data Lakehouse—optimizing storage, performance, and data consistency.
- Manage orchestration workflows with complex dependencies and error handling.
- Implement data governance, security controls, and audit policies across the AWS ecosystem, leveraging services such as AWS Lake Formation for centralized data lake permissions and governance.
- Optimize performance and cost (FinOps); identify and resolve technical bottlenecks.

- Expert proficiency in Python (PySpark / Python Shell) and advanced SQL (window functions, CTEs, execution plan tuning).
- Solid grasp of ETL/ELT tooling and dimensional modeling best practices (Kimball).
- Experience preparing data architectures for visualization tools and operational/management reporting.
- Practical experience with NoSQL engines (e.g., DynamoDB) and relational SQL databases.
- Infrastructure as Code: Terraform or AWS CloudFormation.
Preferred Experience:
- Apache Airflow (MWAA experience preferred) or native AWS orchestration.
- Familiarity with dbt, Airbyte, or Fivetran.
- Experience automating CI/CD for Glue jobs or Lambda deployments.
Soft Skills:
