  • Strong knowledge of CI/CD, version control (Git), and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform/CloudFormation)
  • Experience with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)
  • Understanding of data governance, security, lineage, and compliance (GDPR/HIPAA as applicable)
  • Proven experience architecting solutions from scratch and leading data engineering teams/projects
  • Excellent problem-solving, debugging, and performance-tuning skills
Good to Have
