Senior Data Platform Engineer - Remote Work

We're looking for a Senior Data Platform Engineer who has built the kind of infrastructure that makes large-scale data processing possible. You work in Scala or Java, you understand how data flows through distributed systems under real load, and you've contributed to stream or batch processing platforms that others depend on. You'll be working on open source data platform technology used by leading enterprises worldwide - software that sits at the foundation of how organizations process and manage data at scale.

What You'll Do:

• Build and maintain data platform components in Scala or Java that enable distributed stream and batch processing at scale.
• Design scalable data processing pipelines that move data reliably through large, complex distributed systems.
• Apply JVM performance principles to optimize throughput and latency across data platform infrastructure.
• Work with engineering and data teams to understand platform requirements and deliver high-quality solutions.
• Contribute to the reliability and observability of data processing systems in production environments.
• Participate in code reviews, technical discussions, and continuous improvement of platform engineering practices.

• 5+ years of experience in IT roles.
• 3+ years of experience with Scala or Java as a primary language in data platform or distributed systems contexts.
• Solid experience with distributed data processing systems and their operational challenges.
• Hands-on background in stream or batch processing frameworks and infrastructure.
• Working knowledge of JVM performance tuning and optimization.
• Open source contribution experience is a plus.
• Advanced proficiency in English.
