Who you are
• Ownership-minded over mission-critical data pipelines and serving (batch + streaming + API); you maintain production systems while shipping new features
• Tech-stack flexible: you adapt to the problem, are comfortable across Python, Spark and Kafka, however also curious to explore modern tools and frameworks to challenge the status quo
• Strong on data modeling and understanding business requirements and data relationships—you translate use cases into robust pipelines and feature definitions
• You ship in time-boxed phases, scope pragmatically, and drive projects to delivery—including rescoping or stopping work that isn't delivering value
