You understand how these compose, not just how each works in isolation. Open Table Formats: Production experience with S3 Tables, Apache Iceberg (preferred), or Delta Lake. You understand partition evolution, schema evolution, time travel, and compaction — and when each matter. Streaming: Built production streaming pipelines with Kinesis Data Streams or MSK. Comfortable with exactly once semantics, windowing, late-arriving data, and backpressure. Infrastructure as Code: AWS CDK (Type Script) or Cloud Formation. You define infrastructure in code, not in the console. CI/CD for data pipelines is expected, we currently use Git Hub Actions, and some Terraform. Data Modelling: Can design dimensional models, event schemas, and slowly changing dimensions. Understand the trade-offs between normalized and denormalized storage for different access patterns. Governance and Security: Practical experience implementing column-level security, row-level filtering,



or tag-based access control. Understands how data classification drives policy. Python or Spark: For ETL logic, feature extraction, and data quality validation. Py Spark or Spark Scala for distributed transforms. AI & Machine Learning: Exposure to AI tools and frameworks is a plus.

Provide technical leadership in the adoption of the tooling, patterns, and automation best practices. Collaboration: Partner with cross-functional teams, including product management and security, to align data foundation strategies with business goals and ensure cohesive development and operational workflows. Required Experience & Qualifications: Experience: 10+ years in Data Engineering roles, with significant experience in Saa S and multi-tenant data platforms. Proven track record of mentoring team members in data platform related projects. Cloud Expertise: Strong understanding of AWS services, including VPC, IAM, EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda, EKS, AWS WAF, and AWS Cloud Trail. Data Products: Expert knowledge of S3, RDS, Dynamo DB, Kinesis, Glue, Data Zone, Athena, Red Shift Serverless,and AWS Event Bridge. Containerization & Orchestration: Deep proficiency in Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, and associated ecosystem tools. CI/CD Proficiency: Expertise in CI/CD tools such as Argo CD and Git Hub Actions. Infrastructure as Code (Ia C): Advanced experience with AWS CDK (Type Script preferred) and Cloud Formation. Security: Good knowledge of IAM, AWS KMS, encryption standards, AWS WAF, and security compliance frameworks including NIST. Monitoring & Alerting: Good experience with Open Telemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, AWS Cloud Watch, and AWS Cloud Trail for monitoring and incident response. Data & ETL Pipelines: Extensive knowledge with AWS Glue, AWS Kinesis, and Managed Kafka for real-time and batch data processing. Programming & Automation: Strong scripting and automation skills using Type Script and Bash. Multi-
