  • Document architecture, deployment strategies, and operational runbooks for Kafka-based systems.
  • Participate in code reviews, knowledge-sharing sessions, and architectural discussions.

Must-Have Skills:

  • 5–7 years of experience in backend or data engineering, with strong focus on Apache Kafka.
  • Proficiency in Java for building Kafka producers/consumers and integration with backend services.
  • Deep understanding of Kafka internals (brokers, partitions, consumer groups, offsets, replication, etc.).
  • Experience with schema management using Confluent Schema Registry, Avro, or Protobuf.
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines for Kafka component deployment and integration.
  • Strong collaboration skills with DevOps teams to manage Kafka infrastructure, security, and automation.
  • Solid understanding of real-time data processing concepts, fault tolerance, and data consistency.

Good-to-Have Skills:

  • Experience with Kafka Streams, ksqlDB, or Apache Flink for stream processing.
  • Familiarity with Kafka Connect and connectors for data ingestion and export.
  • Exposure to Confluent Kafka Platform and Kafka REST Proxy.
  • Experience with monitoring and observability tools (e.g., Grafana, ELK Stack).
  • Understanding of container orchestration platforms like Kubernetes or OpenShift.
  • Knowledge of cloud-native Kafka deployments (AWS MSK).
  • Familiarity with Spring Boot for integrating Kafka in microservice environments.
