• Supporting deployment, monitoring, and operational stability of data pipelines.
• Collaborating with Analytics Engineers, Data Scientists, AI/ML Engineers, and Software Engineers to deliver end‑to‑end data solutions.
• Using automation and AI‑assisted techniques to continuously improve the platform.

This is a hands‑on, delivery‑focused role where you'll have meaningful ownership over the pipelines and data products you build.
