  • Strong understanding of point-in-time correctness, train/serve symmetry, and data freshness bounds.
  • Experience managing query performance and cloud costs in BigQuery or comparable environments.
  • Hands-on experience defining cloud infrastructure programmatically using tools like Terraform or Pulumi.
