Requirements
  • Inside-out understanding of at least one major distributed data processing framework (Spark, Dask, Ray,...)
  • 6 months+ experience working with a streaming dataflow framework (e.g.: Flink, Kafka Streams or ksqldb, Spark in streaming mode, Beam/Dataflow)
  • Ability to set up distributed dataflows independently.

  • Experienced in working for an innovative tech company (SaaS, IT infrastructure or similar preferred), with a long-term vision.
  • Warmly disposed towards open-source and open-core software, but pragmatic about licensing.

Bonus Points
  • Know the ways of developers in a corporate environment.
  • Passionate about trends in data.
  • Proficiency in Rust.
  • Experience with Machine Learning pipelines or MLOps.
  • Familiarity with any modern data transformation workflow tooling (dbt, Airflow, Dagster, Prefect,...)
  • Familiarity with Databricks Data Lakehouse architecture.
  • Familiarity with Snowflake's data product vision (2022+).
  • Experience in a startup environment.
