  • Experience in delivering APIs backed by relationship-heavy datasets
  • Experience implementing data governance practices, including data quality, metadata management, and access controls
  • Strong understanding of privacy-by-design principles and handling of sensitive or regulated data
  • Familiarity with data lakes, cloud warehouses, and storage formats
  • Strong proficiency in AWS services
  • Successful design and implementation of scalable and efficient data infrastructure
  • High attention to detail in implementation of automated data quality checks
