Qualifications

• 5–10 years of experience in software engineering, platform engineering, or data integration.
• Hands-on experience with Deploy and configure scalable infrastructure environments for Apache / Confluent Flink and Kafka.
• Experience with stream‑processing frameworks for building real‑time data pipelines, stateful processing, event‑time processing, windowing, joins, fault tolerance, and exactly‑once processing patterns.

• Experience deploying and operating platform components on Kubernetes, including StatefulSets, Helm, operators, resource management, scaling, and production troubleshooting.
• Experience working with public cloud platforms such as AWS and Azure, preferably with managed streaming, container, networking, secrets, and observability services.
• Strong understanding of data‑streaming security, including TLS, SASL, ACLs, RBAC, certificate handling, secrets management, network policies, and access‑control models.
• Solid development experience in Java, Python, .NET, or similar languages, with the ability to build robust streaming applications, platform automation, APIs, and integration services.
• Good knowledge of Infrastructure as Code and GitOps practices; we run everything as code.

• Collaborate with Architects, Product Owners, Operations engineers and other Developers.
• Support and onboard other teams to the integration platform, proposing frameworks, APIs and data streams.
