  • Manage cloud-based data infrastructure and storage solutions across platforms such as Databricks, AWS, Snowflake, and Google Cloud.
  • Build operational tooling and monitoring dashboards to track pipeline health, resource utilization, uptime, and system performance.
  • Collaborate with Data Science, Analytics, Product, and Engineering teams to deliver trusted and scalable data assets.
  • Maintain source control, CI/CD processes, repository standards, and deployment best practices across data platforms.

Qualifications

What we look for:
  • 3-5 years of experience in Data Engineering, Analytics Engineering, or related disciplines.
  • Experience with cloud-based data platforms such as Databricks, AWS, Snowflake, or Google Cloud.
