Build and evolve data processing services and ETL/ELT pipelines for data ingestion, transformation, and querying.
Integrate with the big data query and processing layers using distributed query engines and columnar storage formats to support analytics at scale.
Implement multi-tenant data isolation patterns across database, cache, and storage layers.
Contribute to database consolidation and migration efforts using PostgreSQL, Liquibase, and connection pooling strategies.
Develop and maintain authentication and authorization integrations with identity providers, including session-based auth and mTLS for service-to-service communication.
Design and implement test strategies, automation frameworks, and unit/integration/functional/regression tests to drive up code coverage and system reliability.
Master the team's development processes, culture, and codebase, and continuously identify opportunities to improve them.
