- Configure Apache Iceberg tables and a REST Catalog, including schema evolution and time travel support
- Develop and operate Apache Airflow DAGs, managing dependencies, scheduling, and failure notifications
- Develop an MCP server enabling AI agents to query Gold-layer data marts, including catalog/metadata access, ontology integration, and query execution
- Manage metadata and data lineage using OpenMetadata
- Automate Excel reporting using Python and openpyxl
Qualifications
- 3+ years of hands-on data engineering experience in production environments
