  • Experience working within a version control system (Git, Phabricator) (nice to have).
  • Experience using AI tools to support and augment your own data engineering efficiency (nice to have).

Requirements

  • Self-Directed and Autonomous–Ability to manage your own time, set priorities, and deliver results without micromanagement.
