• Working experience with dbt for data transformation and modeling.
• Proven experience designing ETL processes, data models, and BI solution architectures from the ground up.
• Knowledge of AI/ML operations and experience maintaining models in production.

• Drive data architecture recommendations and establish best practices across engagements.
• Develop and refine reusable templates, frameworks, and assets that improve delivery speed and quality across the practice.
• Stay current on tooling, techniques, and AI/ML approaches relevant to client work, and bring those forward into engagements where they create value.
