• Collaborate across teams to deliver impactful solutions.
• Mentor team members and promote best practices.

About You:

• Degree in Computer Science (or equivalent experience)
• Strong experience with data pipelines, storage, and platforms
• Advanced Python skills and production-level coding experience
• Experience building and deploying data services end-to-end
• Solid understanding of ETL and data engineering best practices
