  • Collaborate with data architects and engineers to implement cloud-native data solutions on AWS using S3, Glue, RDS, and IAM for secure, scalable storage and access control.
  • Optimize pipeline performance through intelligent partitioning, caching, broadcast joins, and adaptive query tuning.
  • Deploy and version data engineering assets using Git-integrated development workflows and automate deployment with CI/CD tools such as GitLab or Jenkins.
  • Monitor pipeline health, job execution, and cluster utilization using native Databricks tools and AWS CloudWatch, identifying bottlenecks and optimizing cost-performance tradeoffs.
  • Conduct technical discovery and mapping of legacy source systems, identifying required transformations and designing end-to-end data flows.
  • Implement governance practices including metadata tagging, data quality validation, audit logging, and lineage tracking using platform-native features and custom logic.
  • Support ad hoc data access requests, develop reusable data assets, and maintain shared notebooks that meet operational reporting and analytics needs across teams.
