• Optimize workflows through data partitioning strategies, storage formats, and platform configurations to enable high performance querying and cost efficiency.
• Engineering Rigor: Champion the "You Build It, You Run It" philosophy. Apply strict functional programming and SOLID principles to write clean, modular, and testable Scala code.
• Performance Optimization: Conduct deep Spark performance tuning - managing memory, query plans, partitioning strategies, and capacity optimization to deliver highly efficient batch and streaming workloads within Microsoft Fabric.
• CI/CD & Automation: Architect and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, Maven, and SBT to automate testing, deployment, and configuration of data artifacts.
