Job summary

YARD CORPORATE SPÓŁKA Z OGRANICZONĄ ODPOWIEDZIALNOŚCIĄ is seeking a Senior Data Engineer to own end-to-end data platforms, architect high-throughput pipelines, and collaborate with AI/ML teams. You will deploy cloud infrastructure with Terraform and integrate reporting, telemetry, and MLOps into live environments.

The role offers 100% remote work from Poland, a strong engineering-first culture, and a focus on scalable data architectures, real-time analytics, and modern data tooling.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of professional experience in software engineering with a primary focus on designing, scaling, and maintaining production data systems.
• Deep Data Architecture Expertise: Proven track record in data modeling, query optimization, and schema design for both high-concurrency relational databases (MySQL / Aurora / RDS) and cloud analytical warehouses.

Responsibilities

• Pipeline Architecture & Engineering: Design, develop, and operate resilient, high-throughput data processing pipelines transforming data across distributed ecosystems.
• Data Modeling & Storage Strategy: Lead schema evolution, DDL/DML design, and partitioning strategies across relational and analytical warehouses to optimize cost, latency, and throughput.
• Engineering Rigor & IaC: Advocate for modern software engineering standards by managing your own cloud infrastructure via Terraform and maintaining automated test suites and robust CI/CD pipelines.
• AI & MLOps Enablement: Partner closely with Data Science and AI specialists to architect feature stores, model ingestion workflows, and production-grade MLOps pipelines.
• Reliability & Observability: Monitor, optimize, and scale containerized data services and scheduled DAGs running in orchestrated environments (Kubernetes, Airflow, Docker).
• Technical Leadership & Collaboration: Serve as a subject-matter expert for cross-functional stakeholders, translating complex architectural trade-offs into practical, business decisions.
