• Integrate and normalize data from marketing platforms, digital agencies, and third-party partners, ensuring performance, reliability, and consistency
• Develop ingestion frameworks for log-level data, event streams, pixel files, and other marketing specific formats
• Establish and maintain data governance practices including schema tracking, lineage awareness, metadata standards, and privacy compliance
• Build observability into pipelines with logging, monitoring, and anomaly detection for operational stability
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to interpret marketing data requirements and translate them into scalable technical solutions

• Experience architecting solutions in cloud environments (Azure preferred; AWS/GCP acceptable)
• Strong understanding of data modeling, warehousing, governance, schema evolution, and data reliability practices
• Experience building automated or agentic data quality validation systems, including LLM-driven or rules-based frameworks
