Data Engineer

Role - Data Engineer

Experience - 3-5 yrs

Location - Bangalore

We are looking for a Data Engineer II (SDE-2) to join our data team. The ideal candidate will be a play a key role to develop of high performant and scalable Data Lake-house, moving us toward a world of sub-minute data latency and unified batch/streaming compute. This is an engineering-heavy role where you will manage complex CDC flows, optimize distributed query engines and leverage AI to accelerate our development lifecycle.

Technical Priorities

• Real-time CDC: Ownership of high-throughput ingestion from RDBMS to Lakehouse using Debezium, PeerDB.
• Lakehouse Architecture: Designing and optimizing table formats (Iceberg, Delta, Hudi) for both performance and storage efficiency.
• Unified Compute: Developing robust ETL/ELT frameworks in PySpark and Flink (handling both batch and streaming workloads).
• Infrastructure & Ops: Managing data workloads on AWS (EMR, EKS, MSK, S3) and automating everything via Gitlab/Github Actions.
• Query & BI: Tuning Trino or Clickhouse to power real-time dashboards in Metabase, Superset, and PowerBI.

Requirements

• Experience: 3–5 years in Data Engineering, specifically with distributed systems and cloud-native architectures.
• Coding: Expert-level Python/PySpark and SQL.
• Familiarity with Go/Java/Scala is a plus
• Infrastructure: Hands-on experience with AWS (S3, EKS, MSK) and Infrastructure-as-Code.
• Orchestration: Experience with Airflow or Temporal for complex workflow management.
• AI-Native: Proficiency in using AI tools (Claude, Codex, Copilot) to write, test, and document code efficiently.
• Systems Thinking: Ability to explain the trade-offs between different storage formats and processing frameworks.
• Tech LeaderShip : Drive key tech initiatives by preparing TRD and actively involve in design reviews.
• Domain Modelling - Should be hands on in designing Domain models for OLAP like Fact, Dimension and types of SCD's and OBT pattern tables.
• Self Starter - Lead the team technically and bring in new ideas to contribute to the growth of the charter.
• Customer First - Interact with the Product & Key Stakeholders & help them by adding value to the business workflow with data & analytics.

Our Tech Stack

• Ingestion: Debezium, PeerDB, Olake
• Storage: Delta, Iceberg, Hudi (S3-based Lakehouse)
• Compute: PySpark, Flink, EMR, EKS
• Streaming: MSK (Kafka)
• Query Engines: Trino, Clickhouse
• Orchestration: Airflow, Temporal
• DevOps: Gitlab, Github Actions, Terraform

Visualization: Metabase, Superset, Tableau, PowerBI
