• Monitoring pipelines for reliability, troubleshooting issues, and contributing to on-call rotations
• Writing documentation for data processes, models, and metadata

Required Skills

• 2-4 years of experience as a Data Engineer (or Backend Engineer with heavy data exposure)
• Strong proficiency in Python and SQL
• Familiarity with data warehouses, Lakehouse platforms, or big data tools (Databricks, Spark, or equivalent)
