Job description
- Drive the evolution of our Data Platform and lead migration to a new on-premise stack
- Build, maintain, and migrate ETL/ELT pipelines from the legacy environment to the new stack
- Work across the full toolchain: Python, SQL, Spark, Airflow, HDFS, Kafka, Trino, Iceberg, and dbt
- Own Airflow as a production orchestration layer - DAGs, deployment, retries, sensors, pools, queues, callbacks/listeners, backfills, and reruns
- Design and implement DataOps practices: monitoring, alerting, SLA/SLO tracking, runbooks, incident diagnostics, and postmortems
- Set up observability across Airflow, Spark, HDFS, Kafka, and other platform components
- Build custom listeners, exporters, checkers, and internal tooling for platform health diagnostics
- Automate recurring team operations: DAG deployment, pipeline migrations, backfill/retry/recovery flows, and pre-release validation
- Advance CI/CD and production-readiness standards for data workflows
- Contribute to Data Governance at the engineering level - ownership, naming conventions, metadata, lineage, access patterns, auditability, and privacy-by-design
- Work with Kubernetes at the application level: updating images, configuring deployments/jobs/cronjobs, migrating services, and managing configs, secrets, and env variables
- Help the team cut down on manual ops, recurring failures, and operational noise
