- Strong collaboration and communication skills to work effectively with engineering teams and clarify technical decisions to non-technical stakeholders.
- Deep empathy for data users, demonstrated by proactive user engagement, observation of pain points, and leveraging these insights to improve the product.
Preferred Qualifications
- Hands-on familiarity with modern data technologies such as Iceberg, Delta, Snowflake, Databricks, dbt, or Airflow.
