  • A confident and positive outlook with low ego; high degree of ingenuity, resourcefulness, and problem-solving skills.
  • Comfortable working in a cloud context, with automated infrastructure and service-oriented architecture.
  • Practical knowledge of agile practices with an outlook that prioritizes experimentation and iteration combined with an ability to guide teams toward activities and processes that facilitate optimal outcomes.
  • Experience with Data Governance initiatives and a track-record of improving data outcomes.
Our Stack

Our engineering stack has PySpark on Databricks at its core, while experience in these technologies is preferred, there is flexibility to cross-train if coming from another similar context.
