• Automation and Scripting : Create tools and scripts to automate data ingestion, transformation, and processing.
• Data Governance and Lineage : Establish policies for data quality, lineage tracking, and regulatory compliance.
• Infrastructure Support : Work closely with DevOps to integrate solutions with system architecture (AWS / GCP).
• Collaboration and Support : Partner with scientists and experts to meet data needs and enable data-driven decisions.
• Open Source Engagement : Contribute tools and learnings to open-source projects to support the broader community.

Profile

• Master’s or PhD in Computer Science, Data Engineering, or a related field
• 7+ years of experience in data engineering, with proven experience managing diverse data types and building scalable architectures
• Proficiency in at least two programming languages (e.g., Python, Rust, Scala, Go)
• Strong experience with both SQL (MySQL, PostgreSQL) and NoSQL (MongoDB)
• Deep understanding of data modeling, ETL, and data warehousing
• Cloud experience (AWS or GCP) and infrastructure-as-code tools (e.g., Terraform)
• Strong communication skills in English
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced startup environment

Bonus Skills

• Experience with ML pipelines and AI infrastructure
