- Experience with modern data tooling for ingestion, transformation and orchestration, such as dbt, Fivetran, Airflow or equivalent, plus a working command of Python.
- Experience connecting data platforms to marketing and customer systems, ideally CDPs such as Twilio Segment, Adobe Real-Time CDP or Salesforce Data Cloud, and engagement platforms such as Braze.
- Practical grasp of data governance, security and privacy, including GDPR, consent data and role-based access.
- Consulting or agency background, credible in front of clients and able to explain architecture choices to marketers and engineers in the same room.
- Evidence of leading or mentoring data engineers on enterprise delivery.
