📋 Description

• Own platform reliability & operations for data infrastructure: capacity planning, incident response/on‑call, disaster recovery, and performance tuning across compute and storage (e.g., Databricks, Snowflake, Glue/Athena, Kinesis/Kafka). • Architect the lake / lakehouse layers (Delta Lake / Apache Iceberg / Hudi) with clear data contracts, schema evolution, compaction, and retention; build the controls that make it safe and fast. • Harden platform surfaces (networking, IAM, encryption, key management, VPC endpoints/PrivateLink, Lake Formation/Unity Catalog) for PHI/PII, auditing, and least‑privilege by default. • Establish observability for data systems (Datadog/CloudWatch): golden signals, lineage, SLIs/SLOs, and cost telemetry/FinOps. • Infrastructure‑as‑Code everything (Terraform/CDK) including EMR/EKS clusters, Snowflake roles/warehouses, secrets, and CI/CD for data platform changes. • Optimize warehouse usage (Snowflake preferred; BigQuery/Redshift welcome): warehouse sizing/queuing, clustering, pruning, caching, RBAC, cost controls. • Partner with data engineering & security to set platform standards (orchestration like Dagster/Airflow; governance via Unity Catalog/Collibra/Lake Formation; quality and metadata services).

🎯 Requirements

• 8+ years in infrastructure/SRE/platform engineering (or hybrid data platform) with deep AWS expertise (networking, IAM, CDK, S3, EKS, EMR, Glue, Lambda; multi‑account patterns). • Expertise running distributed data processing at scale with Spark (Databricks or EMR/EKS), plus working knowledge of Hadoop/Hive/Presto/Trino. • Strong SQL fundamentals and data modeling; Snowflake (or BigQuery/Redshift) performance and cost optimization. • Proven leadership establishing SLOs, runbooks, incident response, and reliability tooling for data platforms. • Solid IaC (Terraform), CI/CD, and security‑by‑default mindset for PHI/PII.
