Security and governance will be integral to your work. You’ll implement role‑based access controls, data masking, and fine‑grained models with Unity Catalog to enable secure, compliant data sharing and ensure proper classification, lineage, and auditability. As a collaborator and mentor, you’ll guide engineers and analysts in adopting lakehouse best practices and modern data engineering standards—coding, testing, version control, and documentation. You’ll stay current with Azure and Databricks capabilities, recommending and piloting features like Delta Live Tables and Unity Catalog enhancements to build a secure, reliable, and future‑ready data platform that accelerates science and mission delivery.
