Ensure data solutions are reliable, scalable, performant, secure, and production‑ready

Monitor, troubleshoot, and continuously improve pipeline performance, data quality, and platform stability

Drive automation, observability, and supportability across data, analytics, and AI/ML solutions

Our Ideal Candidate:

Strong data engineering experience with hands‑on delivery of scalable data pipelines, data products, and analytics foundations

Advanced SQL skills with the ability to design performant queries, data models, and transformation logic

Hands‑on knowledge of Python and PySpark for large‑scale data processing and automation

Curious, hands‑on problem solver who can engage with business stakeholders to understand the real requirement and deliver practical outcomes

Comfortable moving between rapid prototyping and production‑grade data engineering based on business need

Experience enabling visualization, BI, AI/ML, or advanced analytics through trusted and well‑governed data foundations

Familiarity with cloud data platforms, orchestration tools, and distributed data processing patterns

Strong ownership mindset and ability to work effectively across teams

Required Skills/Experience:

MS or BS in a Computer Science or a science/engineering discipline.

More than 6 years of experience in data engineering, analytics engineering, or data platform delivery

Strong proficiency in SQL, Python, and PySpark is required

Experience designing and operating ETL/ELT pipelines, orchestration workflows, data quality checks, and production data products

Experience with cloud data platforms, distributed processing, data modelling, and analytics/BI consumption patterns

Exposure to AI/ML engineering practices, feature pipelines, model productionization, LLM‑based applications, or agentic AI patterns will be considered an advantage

Experience with DevOps and DataOps practices, including CI/CD, monitoring, observability, and incident support
