Descripción del empleo

The Role

As a Senior Data Engineer, you will drive the end-to-end development of our core data infrastructure through AI-native engineering. Championing our AI DevEx approach, you will orchestrate AI agents to rapidly build, scale, and refactor high-performance systems.

We are looking for a technical expert who takes hands‑on ownership of distributed, real-time architectures. Leveraging your deep data engineering expertise, you will construct the robust pipelines that power our next‑generation data products.

In your role, you will make an impact by…

• Developing and driving the architecture of complex data systems that prioritize scalability, reliability, and long‑term maintainability.
• Designing and optimizing production‑grade data pipelines, with a primary focus on high‑throughput, real‑time streaming.
• Driving Spec‑Driven Development (SDD) using OpenSpec or GitHub Spec Kit to create strict engineering contracts that ensure predictable, high‑quality AI code generation.
• Orchestrating agentic AI workflows with Claude Code and the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to rapidly build, refactor, and scale our data infrastructure.
• Taking full accountability and ownership of system components, working in a self‑sufficient manner to solve deep technical challenges.
• Implementing rigorous testing and monitoring frameworks to ensure the integrity of mission‑critical data.
• Mentoring junior engineers and fostering a culture of technical excellence through open feedback and architectural reviews.

You are a perfect fit, if you have…

• 10+ years of professional experience, with 5+ years specifically focused on Data Engineering.
• Deep technical expertise with Kafka (including Producers, Consumers, and Stream Processing) for building scalable, real‑time architectures.
• Strong experience with OLAP databases (expertise in Clickhouse is highly preferred).
• Good fluency in Python and SQL for complex data manipulation, optimization, and system building.
• Willingness to embrace highly agentic AI-assisted development, specifically using Claude Code to autonomously navigate codebases, execute multi‑step engineering tasks, and accelerate development cycles while maintaining high code quality.
• Strong hands‑on experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and automated CI/CD pipelines.
• Significant experience with open‑source tools and technologies within the modern data stack.
• Excellent communication skills and a desire to work in an environment based on transparency and feedback.
• Fluency in English.

Ideally, you also have…….

• Previous experience or knowledge working with Redis or Elasticsearch.
• A proactive approach to architectural decision‑making and a history of leading complex technical projects from conception to production.
• A collaborative mindset that values mentorship and the continuous improvement of engineering processes.
• Experience optimizing distributed system performance at significant scale.

And most importantly, what's in it for you...

• Global & Diverse Team: Work in a collaborative, multicultural environment.
• Flexibility: Flexible working hours to help you shape your own work‑life balance.
• Remote‑First: A truly remote‑friendly environment.
• Growth: Ongoing career development, training, and coaching.
• Learning Time: Six dedicated days per year for learning and development.
• Culture: Regular team events (in‑person and virtual) and location‑based social benefits.
