- Data Operations: Configure schedules, SLAs, alerts, and DQ checks; ensure idempotent and fault-tolerant execution.
- Governance & Security: Apply RBAC, PII handling, policy tags, and least-privilege security principles.
- Performance Optimization: Tune joins, caching, and partitioning for cost and speed efficiency.
- DevOps & SDLC: Leverage Git, CI/CD, testing, and versioning within Foundry.
- Application Integration: Expose ontology-backed data to apps (Workshop/Slate), APIs, and AIP agents.
- Reliability: Manage incident response, RCAs, and create runbooks for data product stability.
- Documentation & Mentorship: Produce detailed documentation and enablement materials for engineering teams.
Required Qualifications

- Strong command of Foundry Ontology, Code Workbooks, Pipelines, and Permissions.
- Expertise in SQL, PySpark/Scala, and data pipeline optimization.
- Experience managing SLAs/SLOs, alerts, DQ frameworks, and version control with Git/CI-CD.
- Familiar with AWS/Azure/GCP, Parquet/Delta, and cost/performance tuning.
- Understanding of data governance, security, and PII compliance.
Nice To Have
- Experience building Workshop/Slate UIs, AIP/Actions, and Kafka/Kinesis streaming integrations.
- Exposure to observability tools (Datadog, CloudWatch, Prometheus) and FinOps practices.
- Established Foundry templates, testing frameworks, or data product catalogs.
Performance Metrics (First Days)
- 99.5% pipeline success rate with SLAs and alerting in place.
- 20%+ reduction in runtime or compute cost.
- Zero P1 data incidents; 4h MTTR with automation.
