  • Educated to undergraduate or higher level in a numerate or applied science subject, but relevant industry experience will be equally valuable and considered.
  • Azure/AWS data engineering, Snowflake certifications.
  • Experience with data platforms, including cache management, scheduling, performance, and tuning of queries.
