  • Develop and optimize data models and warehousing solutions using Postgres, Snowflake, and modern data lake architectures.
  • Build scalable and secure data infrastructure on AWS, leveraging services like S3, Lambda, Glue, Step Functions, ECS, and Matillion.
  • Collaborate with engineers to instrument event tracking and data flows from our web applications.
  • Partner with business and analytics stakeholders to ensure data quality, consistency, and reliability across systems.
  • Improve CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure-as-code setups (Terraform, CloudFormation) for data systems.
  • Contribute to data governance, observability, and monitoring strategies to maintain high availability and accuracy.
