You are a trusted technical expert who enjoys helping data practitioners understand, operate, and improve complex data systems in production.

• Programming & querying: You are comfortable working in at least one programming language commonly used in data systems (for example Python, Scala, Java, or Go), along with strong SQL skills, and you can move fluidly between code, queries, and notebooks when exploring or demonstrating data systems.

You also have:

• 10+ years of experience as a software developer, data engineer, SRE, or other practitioner building and maintaining production systems
• 3+ years of experience in advocacy, developer relations, or equivalent experience reaching technical audiences through written content, conference talks, workshops, webinars, videos, or open-source contributions
