• Build and maintain ETL/ELT workflows using AWS Glue, Lambda, and Python to support a variety of data integration needs.
• Develop, deploy, and optimize APIs to enable seamless data access for business intelligence, analytics, and operational systems.
• Analyze, debug, and resolve data quality issues and pipeline failures to ensure data accuracy and reliability.
• Collaborate across teams—including data science, analytics, and software engineering—to design and implement reusable data models.
• Ensure efficient, scalable, and secure serverless operations through performance tuning and best practices in AWS environments.
• Create and maintain documentation, architecture diagrams, and data flow maps for internal and external use.
• Implement and manage data governance, security protocols, compliance standards, and privacy best practices.
• Incorporate AI tools, such as ChatGPT, to streamline engineering tasks, documentation, and data exploration.
• Lead integration efforts with third-party APIs and data sources to expand the organization’s data capabilities.
• Establish and enforce architectural best practices, CI/CD pipelines, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) in collaboration with DevOps teams.
• Mentor team members, stay current with AWS innovations, and champion modern data practices across the organization.
