Familiarity with data lake technologies, columnar storage formats such as Parquet or Iceberg, and metadata driven frameworks
Experience using Git based workflows, CI CD pipelines, and modern development practices
Exposure to cloud environments, with preference for AWS based data platforms such as S3, EMR, Lambda, or API Gateway
Experience working in regulated or enterprise environments with strong data governance requirements


Preferred Experience

Experience collaborating with UI or platform teams to integrate backend data services
Experience with containerization and orchestration tools such as Docker or Kubernetes
