- Scale data infrastructure to support our rapidly growing business needs
- Unlock actionable insights by enabling seamless, governed access to high-quality, trustworthy data
- Drive innovation in data ingestion, transformation, and delivery across the company
- Establish best practices that balance performance, flexibility, and governance at scale
We’re Looking for Someone Who
- Has a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or a related field
- 3+ years in data infrastructure
- Has strong programming skills, preferably in Python or Java
- Has expertise with cloud data lakes such as Snowflake or Databricks
- Has experience with streaming and big data processing frameworks (e.g., Kafka, Spark)
- Is experienced with workflow orchestration systems (e.g., Apache Airflow, Dagster, Prefect)
- Has implemented CDC solutions (e.g., Debezium, Maxwell)
- Has experience with cloud platforms (preferably AWS) and containerization tools (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes)
Nice to Haves
- exposure to data governance, PII handling, or policy-driven access control — e.g., RBAC at scale, SQL-level data masking, or policy compiler / lineage systems
