The Role

You understand what makes data reliable, secure, and useful -- and you know how to make complex systems talk to each other. You'll thrive in a collaborative environment, enjoy working on diverse projects, and take pride in building solutions that make a difference.



Experience with

ETL/ELT tools

,

data lake or data mesh architectures

, or

automation

for data integration would be a real plus.
