• Data Lake & Warehouse: Build and optimize data lake (S3, Glue, Iceberg) and data warehouse solutions for both batch analytics and real-time querying, supporting OLAP workloads separate from production OLTP systems.
• Automate: Utilize Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools, especially AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK), to automate the deployment and management of data infrastructure.
