• Understanding of ETL pipelines, data platforms, and modern application development
• Strong problem‑solving capability and ability to work in ambiguous environments
• Excellent communication skills and stakeholder engagement experience
• Comfortable operating in client‑facing or consulting‑style environments
• Experience with Palantir Foundry, Gotham, or similar platforms is advantageous but not essential
