  • Produce optimization reports and drive business owners to implement improvements
  • AI-Driven Automation & Tooling
  • Use AI coding tools (Cursor / Copilot / Claude, etc.) fluently to accelerate development and tool delivery
  • Participate in EMR / S3 cost optimization projects: analyze high-cost jobs and storage, identify waste, and drive owners to take action

  • Proficient in Python — able to write clean, maintainable scripts and tools independently
  • **Must be fluent in AI coding tools (Cursor / Copilot / ChatGPT / Claude, etc.) for development and troubleshooting** — this is a hard requirement; please think carefully before applying if you don't use AI tools regularly

  • Have used Spark / Hive / Flink, even just in coursework
  • Familiar with AWS basics (S3, EMR, Athena)

    • Collaborate with world-class talent in a user-centric global organization with a flat structure
    • Tackle unique, fast-paced projects with autonomy in an innovative environment
