Most people in this occupation already list these. Still required — just not what gets you shortlisted.

What the occupation pays Median $142,568 (middle half $111,775–$173,013). This posting is about at that midpoint.

Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Jul 28, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.

Why we read it this way (6)

No specific work location is stated; the role requires 50% travel on average, suggesting client-site consulting work across the US. No CBSA could be determined.

SOC classification is a close call: the role centers on building data pipelines, ETL, and lakehouse architecture (pointing to 15-1243 Database Architects / Data Engineers), but the heavy use of Python and Spark for pipeline development also fits 15-1252 Software Developers. 15-1243 was chosen as the primary because data modeling, integration patterns, and platform architecture are explicitly foregrounded.

The 3+ years overall experience requirement is the binding the overall years minimum; the 2+ years Databricks/Spark/Python/SQL requirement is captured on those individual skills.

Cloud platform experience (AWS, Azure, or GCP) is listed as a required qualification with 'at least one' framing — AWS is used as the primary skill name with Azure and GCP as alternatives.

Delta Lake, Databricks Workflows, Unity Catalog, Git, and CI/CD all appear under the 'Preferred' section.

The compensation range ($86,700–$170,900/year) is explicitly noted as not adjusted for geographic differential.
