Data Platform Engineer (Remote)

We're looking for a Data Platform Engineer to join our Data Engineering team and help build a modern data platform from the ground up. This is a greenfield opportunity focused on designing and implementing scalable data infrastructure, engineering robust data pipelines, and establishing observability, playing a critical role in enabling reliable, high-performance, and secure data systems. You'll work closely with data engineers, analysts, and senior technical stakeholders to design, implement, and operate the foundations of our data stack - from cloud infrastructure and data pipelines to storage and processing layers. This role is ideal for an experienced engineer with strong data platform and cloud infrastructure expertise who thrives in a high-impact, global fintech environment. What you get to do::

• Design and implement cloud-based data platform infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform), with a strong focus on scalability, security, reliability, and cost-efficiency.
• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines that automate data engineering workflows, data pipeline deployments, and infrastructure provisioning, ensuring faster deployment cycles and minimizing errors.
• Implement and operate observability solutions - integrating monitoring, logging, and metrics to ensure platform reliability, performance visibility, and fast incident response.
• Collaborate closely with data engineers and cross-functional teams to design and implement data pipelines, data models, and platform capabilities that meet performance and business requirements.
• Apply best practices for high availability, disaster recovery, security and cost optimization, while documenting infrastructure patterns, data architecture decisions, and operational procedures.

• 3-5 years of hands-on experience in Data Engineering, Platform Engineering, or DataOps roles.
• Proven track record in designing and implementing reliable, scalable data platforms and data infrastructure - not just supporting, but owning end-to-end delivery.
• Hands-on experience with modern data engineering tools such as dbt, Apache Airflow or Apache Kafka is required.
• Hands-on proficiency with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and cloud architecture patterns on AWS or GCP.
• Deep experience with AWS or GCP, including data storage and processing services (e.g., BigQuery, Snowflake, S3, Redshift).
• Practical experience with Kubernetes and containerised workloads for orchestrating data platform services.
• Experience implementing observability stacks for data platform monitoring, logging, metrics, and alerting.
• Strong programming skills in Python, SQL, and Bash to build data pipelines, automate workflows, and perform data processing.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work effectively in a collaborative, fully remote environment.
• A strong inclination to deepen expertise in data architecture, data modelling, and MLOps capabilities.
• Experience with real-time data processing (e.g., Kafka, Spark Streaming) and both SQL and NoSQL data storage solutions is an advantage.

Our advanced, multi-cloud platform delivers real-time data, unmatched scalability, and the flexibility of a network of regional hubs. It's this global reach and innovation that sets us apart.
