Strong Python skills for data processing, automation, and scripting.

Cloud infrastructure experience (AWS and GCP preferred: S3, Glue, Athena, Redshift, Lake Formation).

Dev Ops fluency - CI/CD pipelines, containerization, and infrastructure-as-code are familiar territory.

Collaborative mindset and strong communication skills.

Background in building data products or platforms (not just internal analytics).

Exposure to machine learning pipelines or feature stores.

Bachelor's or Master’s Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Management Information Systems, or related field preferred.

Well-experienced in working in an Agile shop.

Normal office environment with use of computers and telephone systems; no unusual physical demands.

Travel to customer locations, including overnight, business air travel, and car rental.
