- Support delivery execution by translating broader architectural direction into practical implementation patterns, engineering tasks, reusable technical assets, and AI-enabled productivity accelerators.
- Drive rigor across sprint delivery, production readiness, support models, and incident management for business-critical data platforms.
Collaboration, Governance, and Platform Standards
- Partner effectively with global platform, architecture, governance, security, data mastering, and Databricks-aligned teams to ensure offshore delivery aligns with enterprise standards.
- Contribute to technical discussions related to pipeline architecture, onboarding frameworks, cloud platform controls, data governance, AI-assisted engineering practices, semantic modeling, and mastering integrations.
- Support governance requirements through appropriate controls around lineage, schema consistency, data quality, retention, access control, auditability, metadata, and secure data distribution.
