• Maintain scalable processes and ensure consistency in reporting practices

• Strong problem-solving and communication skills, with experience engaging both technical and business audiences
• Familiarity with data engineering concepts (ETL/ELT, medallion architecture)
• A collaborative mindset and ability to build trust with stakeholders
• Bonus: Hands-on experience with the modern data stack: Git-based workflows, cloud data platforms (Snowflake, Redshift, BigQuery), dbt/ sqlmesh or similar, and orchestration tools
