A security-first mindset - a good understanding of security and compliance principles as they relate to data infrastructures and the management of data. Goal-oriented - you'll enjoy finishing the job by developing the final details. Strong problem-solving skills and experience with troubleshooting and root cause analysis. A willingness to deliver user value early while balancing technical quality - having an iterative deliverable mindset. Communication Good communication skills - a great candidate will be able to communicate with other engineers and non-technical stakeholders, tailoring the message appropriately to the audience. The ability to question the way we work, and the tools and processes we use - we're always aiming to make our team the best it can be.
