Maintain and evolve data architecture across polyglot backend microservices (Python/FastAPI, PHP, Java/Scala) to support continuous analytics delivery.
Ensure end-to-end data quality, freshness, and reliability by implementing automated validation, monitoring frameworks, and strict SLA tracking.
Provision and manage cloud-native data infrastructure on AWS using Terraform, Docker, and automated CI/CD practices.
Collaborate cross-functionally with Product Managers, SRE, Platform Engineers, and Data Scientists to translate complex domain needs into performant data products.
