Job Summary:

Design, build, and operate critical subsystems of the data platform. Take ownership of major components — streaming, batch, storage, or serving — drive them from design to production, and continuously improve their reliability and performance.

Job Duties:

Responsibilities

  • Streaming Infrastructure: Kafka cluster operations (broker tuning, partition rebalancing, monitoring, disaster recovery); manage schema registry and Kafka Connect connectors
  • Batch & Streaming Compute: Build and optimize Spark batch jobs and Flink/Spark Structured Streaming pipelines; contribute reusable job frameworks and tuning guides
  • Storage & Lakehouse: Manage Iceberg tables (compaction, snapshot expiration, orphan file cleanup, schema evolution); operate MinIO at scale (lifecycle rules, tiering, performance tuning)
  • Query & Serving: Deploy and operate Trino clusters (connector config, resource groups, query monitoring); manage StarRocks/ClickHouse clusters (sharding, replication, materialized views)
  • Orchestration: Build and maintain Airflow/Dagster DAGs for platform operations; extend custom operators and sensors
  • Platform Observability: Implement monitoring with OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, and Loki across all stack layers; build dashboards and alerting rules
  • Kubernetes Operations: Write Helm charts, manage operator lifecycles, configure resource quotas, node affinity, pod disruption budgets
  • CI/CD & GitOps: Own ArgoCD application sets, Helm-based deployments, and promotion pipelines from dev to prod
  • Participate in on-call rotation; write post-mortems and runbooks
  • Mentor mid-level engineers through pairing, design discussions, and code reviews

Required Skills & Experience

  • 6+ years in data/platform engineering or backend infrastructure
  • Strong Kubernetes: Helm chart authoring, RBAC, network policies, storage (PV/PVC), operators
  • Solid Kafka: topic design, consumer group management, offset management, monitoring lag, Kafka Connect, schema registry (Apicurio or Confluent)
  • Solid Spark: Dataframe/Dataset API, Spark SQL, performance tuning, troubleshooting in production
  • Working knowledge of Flink or Spark Structured Streaming for real-time pipelines
  • Practical Iceberg experience: table maintenance, time-travel, catalog integration
  • Hands-on Trino or Presto: connector configuration, query tuning, resource group management
  • Experience with an OLAP engine: StarRocks, ClickHouse, or Doris — table design, ingestion pipelines, query optimization
  • Proficient in Python and either Scala or Java
  • Solid CI/CD and GitOps: ArgoCD or Flux, Helm, Docker
  • Airflow or Dagster for pipeline orchestration

Nice to Have

  • OpenShift-specific: SCC, Routes, ImageStreams, BuildConfigs
  • dbt project experience for data transformation and modeling
  • Data quality frameworks: Great Expectations, Soda, or Deequ
  • Kafka Streams or ksqlDB for stream processing
  • Exposure to DataHub/Atlas for data discovery and lineage
