Essential

• 5+ years of experience in data architecture, data engineering, or a closely related role
• Strong proficiency in data modelling techniques: relational, dimensional (Kimball/Inmon), and Data Vault
• Hands-on experience with data integration tools and frameworks (e.g. Apache Kafka, dbt, Spark, Talend, or similar)
