  • Contribute to CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code, and cloud-native operational practices.
  • Champion secure coding, observability, monitoring, and performance optimization across all services.
  • Collaborate closely with product, data, DevOps, and engineering peers in Agile/Scrum cycles.
  • Mentor team members, participate in code/design reviews, and foster knowledge sharing.

Requirements

  • Bachelors degree or higher in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
  • 6+ years of hands-on software or data engineering experience, including designing and maintaining streaming or real-time data pipelines.
  • Strong expertise with distributed streaming platforms such as Kafka, Flink, Spark Structured Streaming, or Pulsar, and their associated tooling.
  • Strong programming experience in Java, Scala, or Python for backend and distributed systems; proficiency in one major framework (Spring Boot, Django, FastAPI, Akka, etc.).
  • In-depth understanding of event-driven architectures, stateful stream processing, windowing, and exactly-once delivery semantics.
  • Experience architecting robust, high-performance systems optimized for latency, throughput, and resilience.
  • Familiarity with cloud-based streaming services (AWS Kinesis, Google Pub/Sub, Azure Event Hubs) is a plus.

  • Excellent collaboration, problem-solving, and communication skills.
