Job DetailsWhy this role
You'll architect, build, and run the data backbone that powers analytics, ML, and operational reporting.
What you'll do
- Own the lakehouse. Design and evolve our Data Lake/Lakehouse (Delta Lake) on AWS and/or Azure, from storage layout and security to compute strategy (Databricks, EMR, Synapse) and SLAs.
- Build serious pipelines. Develop batch and streaming ETL/ELT with Apache Spark (PySpark/Scala), Databricks Workflows, and/or Azure Data Factory; integrate sources via APIs, CDC, and message buses (Kinesis/Event Hubs/Kafka).
- Model for analytics & ML. Deliver well-tested models and dimensional/semantic layers for Databricks SQL that power BI and production ML features.
- Engineer for production. Implement observability (custom Spark metrics/listeners, logging, data quality tests, anomaly alerts to Teams), CI/CD (GitHub Actions/Azure Pipelines), infra as code (Terraform), and automated testing (pytest).
- Optimize relentlessly. Right-size clusters, tune Spark jobs, partitioning, caching, and storage formats to cut runtime and reduce cloud spend, and prove it with dashboards.
- Harden governance. Enforce RBAC/row-level security, cataloging/lineage, PII handling, and compliance (e.g., GDPR; HIPAA/FHIR; CCPA/CDPA experience is a plus).
- Partner cross-functionally. Work with analytics, product, and platform teams to define SLAs, own incident response/runbooks, and guide data contract best practices.
- Mentor and lead. Drive design reviews, coach engineers, and set engineering standards for reliability, readability, and long-term maintainability.
What you'll bring
- 8+ years hands-on in data engineering (we're flexible for exceptional builders).
- Expert Python and SQL; working Scala/Java for Spark when needed.
- 3-5+ years with Apache Spark and Databricks (jobs, clusters, Delta Live Tables, performance tuning).
- Strong cloud chops in AWS (S3, EMR, Glue, Lambda, Kinesis, IAM) and/or Azure (ADLS Gen2, ADF, Event Hubs, Synapse, Functions).
- Production orchestration with Airflow and/or ADF, plus dbt for transformation.
- Warehouse experience with Snowflake (preferred) and/or Redshift/Databricks SQL.
- Proven cost/performance optimization and reliability wins (e.g., cutting EMR/Databricks costs, reducing downtime, eliminating flaky jobs).
- Solid grounding in data modeling (dimensional/star), testing, CI/CD, Docker/Linux, and Git.
- Comfort translating business needs into scalable data products and leading projects end-to-end.
Nice to have
- Experience building custom Spark listeners/metrics, event-driven architectures, or low-latency streaming.
- FHIR/healthcare data pipelines and DLT troubleshooting.
- Power BI/Tableau/Looker dashboarding to close the loop on quality and impact.
- Exposure to governance frameworks (catalog/lineage, RLS, data contracts) and MLOps (feature stores, model monitoring).
Our stack (you don't need all of it)
Databricks, Spark (PySpark/Scala), Delta Lake, Airflow, ADF, dbt, AWS (S3/EMR/Glue/Kinesis), Azure (ADLS/Synapse/Event Hubs), Terraform, GitHub Actions, Docker, CloudWatch, REST.
What success looks like in 6-12 months
- Critical domains are flowing through trustworthy, observable pipelines with
- 30-50% reduction in time-to-insight on key analytics use cases via dbt and semantic layers.
- Meaningful cost savings from tuned compute/storage without sacrificing latency.
- Stakeholders trust the platform, alerts are actionable, incidents a
