You will also work closely with offshore contractors, reviewing their work, providing feedback, and ensuring output meets the team's quality and engineering standards. The ideal candidate will have a strong command of cloud data warehousing, dimensional modeling, Python, and applied AI tooling, as well as a collaborative mindset that thrives in a team-oriented environment. This role is an excellent opportunity for a senior engineer looking to deepen their full-stack data and AI expertise alongside experienced technical leadership.
