• Build and optimize large‑scale data processing pipelines running on Databricks
• Implement efficient algorithms and data transformations to support analytical and operational needs
• Optimize performance, throughput, and reliability of distributed data workflows
• Collaborate closely with Data Scientists, Product Managers, and other engineering teams to translate requirements into scalable solutions
• Implement monitoring, alerting, and observability for data workloads
• Ensure code quality through best practices such as code reviews, testing, CI/CD, and documentation
• Contribute to architectural decisions and technical strategy for the data platform
• Troubleshoot production issues, perform root‑cause analysis, and optimize system stability
  
  

Qualifications

• 5+ years of backend software engineering experience, with a strong focus on Python
• Hands-on experience with Apache Spark, Databricks, or similar distributed-processing frameworks
• Proven ability to design and optimize high-scale data pipelines handling large datasets
• Strong understanding of distributed systems, parallel processing, and performance tuning
• Familiarity with cloud environments (Azure, AWS, or GCP)
• Experience with modern CI/CD processes, testing frameworks, and code-quality standards
• Strong understanding of data structures, algorithms, and system design
• Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to work independently

• Experience in data lakehouse architectures or cloud‑native data platforms
• Familiarity with container technologies (Docker, Kubernetes)
• Background in cybersecurity, analytics platforms, or large-scale SaaS systems
• Hands-on experience with AI concepts, LLMs, and agents
  
  

Personal Qualities

• Ownership mindset and ability to drive initiatives end-to-end
• Strong communication skills, both written and verbal
• Ability to collaborate across teams in a fast-paced environment
• Curiosity, adaptability, and passion for high-quality engineering
