  • Write scalable, testable code and follow modern engineering practices (e.g., version control, CI/CD, code reviews)
  • Collaborate with product, QA, and operations teams to co-develop and deliver technical solutions that meet user needs


  • What We’re Looking For
  • Proficiency in Scala, Java, and Python for backend development and data engineering
  • Experience with Apache Spark (and Spark Streaming) and platforms like Databricks or Delta Lake

  • Experience with real-time data streaming frameworks like Apache Storm, Kafka, or Pekko
  • Familiarity with search technologies such as Elasticsearch
  • Experience with NoSQL databases (e.g., MongoDB, Redis), and relational databases (e.g., RDS)
  • Exposure to workflow orchestration tools like Apache NiFi is a plus
  • Experience with cloud-native deployments, CI/CD pipelines, and DevOps best practices
  • Strong understanding of computer science fundamentals, such as algorithms, data structures, and system design
  • Experience in database query optimization and performance tuning


  • To Be Successful in This Role, You Will Need
  • A bachelor’s degree (or higher) in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
  • At least 5 years of professional experience building scalable data pipelines with Apache Spark or Databricks, or equivalent experience with Apache Storm
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills, and the ability to work effectively during U.S. time zones
  • Proficiency in Java or Scala, with a willingness to work in Scala
  • Experience with Python is a plus


  • The salary range applies to the general US and may be adjusted based on geographic location. Compensation decisions depend on the circumstances of each case, including skill sets, experience, certifications, and business and organizational needs. The estimated salary range for this role is $165,000 - $185,000 per year.
