• Build abstractions and re-usable developer tooling to allow other engineers to quickly build streaming/batch self-service pipelines.
  
• Build, deploy, maintain, and automate large global deployments in AWS.

  • You have experience building data pipelines (real-time or batch) on large complex datasets.
    
  • A plus would be understanding messaging/queueing/stream processing systems.
    
  • You design not just with a mind for solving a problem, but also with maintainability, testability, monitorability, and automation as top concerns.

    • Flink and Kafka for stream processing.
