and interact with the data platform and its various features.

- Cloud Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Lead the design and deployment of general data infrastructure using Terraform (GCP/AWS) to ensure highly reproducible, secure, and version-controlled environments.

- Advanced CI/CD Automation: Architect robust GitLab CI automation for data workflows, dbt transformations, and infrastructure deployments, ensuring a zero-manual-intervention environment.

- Data Observability & Cost Optimization: Implement advanced monitoring for complex queries and resource allocation to balance peak performance with cloud cost efficiency.

- Streaming & Real-Time AI Feeds: Build and optimize real-time data streaming infrastructure using Apache Beam, Flink, and Pub/Sub to feed instant data into predictive AI models.
