- Deep hands-on dbt experience: model design, testing, macros, CI, and refactoring a large, messy project into something maintainable
- Hands-on experience administering a cloud data warehouse (Snowflake preferred, BigQuery or Databricks considered), including permissions, performance tuning and cost management
- Data contracts, data observability tooling (e.g. Metaplane, Monte Carlo, Elementary)
- Expert SQL and strong data modeling skills (dimensional modeling, grain, slowly changing dimensions)
