  • Enforce IAM, security policies, and compliance standards across the data ecosystem.
  • Collaborate with data engineers and analysts to improve data reliability, scalability, and governance.

  • Strong CI/CD knowledge (GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or ArgoCD).
  • Familiarity with Looker (modeling best practices, ensuring reliable data delivery to dashboards).
  • Strong experience with monitoring and observability for data platforms (Grafana, Prometheus, Datadog, ELK).
