storage, and analytics, such as Amazon S3, Amazon EMR, and AWS Lake Formation,
with native Iceberg support.
Manage Iceberg tables: Build and manage Apache Iceberg tables on Amazon S3 to
enable data lakehouse features like ACID transactions, time travel, and schema
evolution.
Optimize data performance: Implement partitioning strategies, data compaction,
and fine-tuning techniques for Iceberg tables to enhance query performance.
Ensure data quality and integrity: Implement data validation and error-handling
processes, leveraging Iceberg\'s transactional capabilities for consistent
data.
Ensure security and compliance: Implement robust data security measures, access
controls, and compliance with data protection regulations, including using AWS

Top Skills Details
they
are looking for data engineers responsible for ingesting sources into the
lakehouse, standardizing, transforming, and integrating data across the
architecture.
They need experienced individuals who are comfortable making recommendations
and bringing their own experience to the table, rather than those who just
follow requirements in an already defined environment.
Experience with a Greenfield implementation or excitement about such an
opportunity is critical.
While not fixated on specific tools, a strong preference for candidates with
AWS experience is mentioned, as opposed to only Azure or GCP.
Key AWS services and tools mentioned include Airflow, Lambda functions, Glue
(though not a strong preference), and Iceberg as a table format. Familiarity with
file formats like JSON and Avro is also noted.
The role will involve building new things and foundational work, not primarily
migrating existing systems.
