Cloud Knowledge: Hands-on experience with GCP data services.

Soft Skills: Meticulous approach to data and excellent communication skills to translate business requirements into technical solutions.

Beneficial: Familiarity with React for internal tools and experience with RAG use cases or vector databases.
