• Partner with business stakeholders and engineering leadership to understand data requirements and translate them into scalable technical solutions.
• Ensure data accuracy, integrity, and consistency across multiple systems.
• Participate in architecture discussions and help establish engineering standards for this newly formed team.
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to code reviews and technical design decisions.

Required Qualifications

• 5-8 years of professional software engineering experience.
