What they ask for
- Hands-on experience building and owning end-to-end ingestion pipelines for large, messy, multi-source data.

- Proficiency with workflow orchestration and transformation tools, plus experience at a startup, high-engineering-bar company, or data infrastructure vendor, and comfort with cloud data warehouse analytics engineering and modeling.
Nice to have
