- Design and deploy internal web applications, tools, and APIs to configure data pipelines, visualize platform health, and integrate AI workflows.
- Contribute to modernizing the Data Platform, ensuring it aligns with industry trends and supports our unique needs.
- Manage the deployment and lifecycle of services on Kubernetes and Cloud.
- Partner with users to refactor data schemas, identify latency bottlenecks, and apply storage patterns to reduce operational costs.
- Ensure high platform availability through detailed on-call practices and proactive monitoring of complex data dependencies.
What We're Looking For
- BS or MS in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field or equivalent experience.
