  • Monitor, optimize, and tune data infrastructure and Spark/Databricks workloads to improve performance and cost efficiency
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Data Science, Analytics, DevOps, Product, and Platform Engineering teams to deliver new features and data products
  • Contribute to architecture discussions and implement best practices such as layered data modeling and Lakehouse design patterns

  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or GitLab CI) and version control using Git
  • Experience delivering end-to-end data products (not just pipelines) for analytics, BI, and application use cases
  • Eligibility to work in the U.S. or EU, with the ability to travel as required

Nice to have

  • Bachelor's degree in a related field, plus experience in Data Engineering, DevOps, or Software Development
  • Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS preferred: EC2, S3, Lambda
