* Strong PySpark skills including transformations, partitioning, shuffle/broadcast operations, and performance tuning
* Strong SQL skills across analytical workloads

* Ability to independently own deliverables and work through ambiguity

Nice to Have

Why Apply?

* Work on enterprise-scale data platforms and modern data engineering practices
