  • Expertise in designing, optimizing, and orchestrating robust data pipelines (ETL/ELT) and ingestion systems for large-scale, real-time, and batch processing.
  • Experience managing data warehouses (e.g., Snowflake, Redshift) and leveraging analytics tools (e.g., Spark, SQL, Python, Databricks).
  • Hands-on experience with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), CI/CD pipelines, and distributed architectures (event-driven, in-memory computing).
  • Deep proficiency with modern database systems, including replication, sharding, partitioning, indexing, and caching strategies for high-performance query optimization.
  • Strong understanding of data security, governance, and compliance principles.
  • Experience with infrastructure monitoring, performance optimization, and active participation in architecture reviews.
