- Document your work clearly and share knowledge across the team
- Work with business stakeholders to map manual processes and automate them
Essential
- 7+ years in software, data or platform engineering
- Strong API and data handling experience
- Depth in at least one of the three tracks above (e.g Databricks or AI/Claude or GCP Big Query)
