Responsibilities

• Design and implement large-scale data processing pipelines capable of handling millions of records across a cloud-native data platform.
• Establish standardized and reusable architecture patterns for low-latency data analysis and querying at petabyte scale.
• Design and deliver REST/gRPC APIs, web applications, and natural-language/AI-driven interfaces that enable users to interact with large datasets efficiently.
• Own the reliability, scalability, performance, and cost efficiency of the platform, including workload orchestration, monitoring, debugging, and optimization.
• Design systems capable of supporting millions of concurrent workloads, with strong fault tolerance, resiliency, reproducibility, and operational visibility.
• Partner with cloud infrastructure, engineering, product, and other technical teams to translate complex business requirements into scalable product architectures and realistic delivery plans.
• Drive the transition of innovative technical concepts and prototypes into commercial-grade, production-ready software solutions.
• Set technical direction and raise engineering standards through architecture reviews, design reviews, mentoring, hands-on development, and rapid prototyping.
• Collaborate effectively with globally distributed teams and maintain a strong customer-focused approach to product and technology development.

Requirements

• Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Mathematics, or a related technical discipline.
• Proven experience designing and delivering large-scale data-intensive production software in the cloud using AWS, Azure, or GCP.
• Strong hands-on experience with Docker, Kubernetes, infrastructure automation, and CI/CD.
• Deep knowledge of modern data lake and lakehouse architectures, including Apache Iceberg or Delta Lake, catalog services, snapshot management, partitioning, data pruning, compaction, and schema evolution.
• Strong understanding of columnar data formats such as Parquet and distributed query engines such as Spark, Trino, or Databricks.
• Strong algorithms and systems engineering foundation, with proven ability to develop performance-critical software in C/C++, including concurrency, memory management, vectorization, and SIMD.
• Experience working with columnar and vectorized processing technologies such as Apache Arrow, DuckDB, or Velox.
• Proven track record of profiling and optimizing large-scale systems for runtime, memory, I/O, scalability, and cloud infrastructure costs.
• Strong proficiency in Python for rapid prototyping, data processing, automation, and production tooling.
• Experience designing and operating distributed batch processing and workflow systems handling very large numbers of concurrent jobs.
• Strong understanding of production observability, including metrics, tracing, structured logging, retries, checkpointing, idempotency, and failure recovery.
• Experience with workflow orchestration and execution environments such as Kubernetes or cloud-based batch processing platforms.
• Experience designing and delivering API-first services, including REST/gRPC, API versioning, backward compatibility, authentication, authorization, and multi-tenant architectures.
• Sufficient full-stack experience to collaborate effectively on modern web applications and data-intensive user interfaces.
• Experience developing highly reliable and reproducible software, including automated testing, benchmarking, validation, and performance testing.
• Proven ability to provide technical leadership and influence at senior level, with excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
• Demonstrated experience using AI-powered development tools to accelerate and improve the software development lifecycle, engineering productivity, and software quality.

Experience / Education

• Typically requires a minimum of 12 years of relevant experience with a Bachelor's degree, or 8 years with a Master's degree, or a PhD with 5 years of relevant experience; equivalent experience may also be considered.
• Demonstrated track record of leading complex technical initiatives from concept and prototyping through production deployment and commercialisation.
