Experience implementing secure cloud data integrations or platform configurations such as external locations, storage credentials, secret scopes, or identity federation basics.
Experience working with Git-based workflows and CI/CD tooling (e.g., GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps), plus familiarity with Databricks Repos, Asset Bundles, or basic Terraform/IaC concepts.
Introductory experience or interest in AI/ML enabled engineering, such as Databricks Model Serving, Genie, Agent Bricks, or equivalent cloud-native ML platforms.

Mandatory Qualifications & Requirements
