  • Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders to understand complex business requirements and translate them into technical solutions

  • Contribute to the technical roadmap for our data systems and help make critical architecture decisions

  • Implement and enforce best practices for data integrity, security, and performance optimization

  • Build domain expertise in areas such as Finance, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, People, and Sustainment to better design data models

  • Be a force multiplier for the Data & Analytics team - embody our principle of Velocity.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS


  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience with a focus on data-intensive applications

  • Strong experience in database design and optimization

  • Proficiency in Python & SQL

  • Experience with cloud infrastructure and distributed systems

  • Understanding of data modeling concepts and best practices
