  • 3–5 years’ experience building and operating cloud-native data pipelines (AWS and Snowflake is preferred) 
  • Strong proficiency in SQL and Python, with hands-on experience in ETL/ELT frameworks
  • Demonstrated ability to design, implement and optimise data models and workflows
  • Familiarity with Infrastructure as Code and CI/CD tooling
