Extend and integrate tools and workflows so other teams can adopt them.
Build in data quality and software engineering discipline: validation, automated testing, code review, CI/CD.
Document what you build and review AI-generated work critically.
What You Bring
5+ years in data engineering, including production ownership of the pipelines you built.
Strong SQL and Python.
Strong data modeling: canonical and dimensional design, conflicting sources, history, adjustments. You can explain why a model is shaped the way it is.
Production dbt and workflow orchestration (Airflow or similar).
Expertise with Snowflake and/or Databricks, Spark SQL experience
Data quality and CI/CD practices applied to data: validation and reconciliation, pull requests, automated tests, deployment automation.
Generalist range: you can take a broad, loosely defined problem and run it end to end across ingestion, modeling, infrastructure, APIs and operations, including incident response, and you onboard a new data source from discovery to delivery.
A record of extending or integrating existing tools and building things other teams use.
Quick, deep learning of complex domains: you ask why the data looks the way it does, and you verify AI-generated code and abstractions against ground truth.
Good intuition on how to leverage AI in development and automation in day-to-day engineering practices, understands how to leverage AI as a force multiplier for efficiency, and potential risk

Experience building your own AI skills, MCP tools, and plugins
Large-scale batch file ingestion (SFTP and cloud storage, EDI X12, fixed-width, CSV/Parquet) and schema drift handling.
Automation: GitHub Actions, infrastructure-as-code, and turning recurring data operations into tested, repeatable workflows.

Strong AWS experience.
BI exposure, such as semantic or cube modeling.
AI engineering: building your own agent tools, MCP servers, skills or plugins.
Spark performance tuning, data contracts and schema governance, HIPAA/PHI handling.
