Model and optimize datasets using Lakehouse or warehouse-based architectures for downstream consumption.
Collaborate closely with analysts and cross-functional partners to build production-grade data assets.

Explore and deploy AI-enabled automation tools and workflows across the business.
Advocate for productivity-boosting technologies such as ChatGPT, Copilot, Cursor, and dbt-assist.
Help document standards, develop reusable components, and mentor junior data engineers.
5+ years of experience in data engineering or analytics engineering roles.
Strong proficiency with SQL and Python (or Scala).
Hands-on experience with modern cloud data warehouses (Databricks, Snowflake, BigQuery, or Redshift).
