Experience with streaming technologies such as Kafka, Pub/Sub, or similar

Ability to operate with high ownership, drive ambiguous initiatives independently, and communicate complex data concepts to technical and non-technical audiences alike
Bonus if you have:
Deep experience operating ClickHouse at scale
Experience owning or migrating a Looker implementation
