  • Good communication skills with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Modern data stack experience may include AWS, Snowflake, dbt or SQLMesh, Git or GitHub, CI/CD, Kubernetes, Kafka, infrastructure as code, and platform automation.
  • Scripting or programming skills are desired in SQL or Procedural SQL, Python, or Bash.
