About the role
- We are looking for a Senior Solutions Consultant with deep Hadoop knowledge and strong enterprise presence.
- This is a hands-on role with a consultative position.
- You are the person the customer relies on to get a secure, scalable platform right the first time.
Responsibilities
- You'll be equal parts architect, engineer and trusted advisor: designing the target-state cluster, executing the build, and translating hard technical trade-offs into terms a customer's stakeholders can act on.
- Own cluster architecture and deployment. Lead end-to-end deployment of Acceldata ODP managed via Apache Ambari. Define cluster topology - master, slave and client node placement - sized to the customer's workload and infrastructure.
- Implement enterprise security.
Requirements
- 8+ years of experience in customer-facing product implementation, designing and deploying performant end-to-end data architectures, and solving complex migrations and deployments.
- Deep architectural knowledge of the Apache Hadoop ecosystem (HDFS, YARN, MapReduce, Hive, ZooKeeper).
- Practical experience with enterprise security: Kerberos (KDC), SSL/TLS, LDAP/AD and Apache Ranger.
Nice to have
- Comfort operating within the platform's runtime stack (Java and Python) for configuration and troubleshooting.
- Extensive experience managing Cloudera (CDH/CDP) or Hortonworks (HDP) distributions - this maps to an excellent foundation for the role.
- Familiarity with several of the mpack components above (Spark, Kafka, NiFi, Trino, Ozone, MLflow, etc.) rather than all.
- Experience delivering into regulated, secured or air-gapped environments.
- Strong desire to tackle hard technical problems in Kubernetes
- proven ability to do so with little or no direct daily supervision.
- Prior customer-facing / professional-services or consulting experience in enterprise environments.
Compensation
- CAD 150k-CAD 180k
