- Design and maintain cloud-native data architectures using AWS services such as S3, Glue, Lambda, Redshift, and related technologies
- Automate data workflows and orchestration processes to improve operational efficiency
- Participate in architecture discussions, code reviews, and continuous improvement initiatives
- 3+ years of experience in Data Engineering, Data Platform Engineering, or a related field
