  • You are experienced in designing and implementing real time ingestion solutions.
  • You understand the entire product development lifecycle very well, from coding to deployments, to monitoring, alerting.

  • You work indepentently and set your own goals in a hands-off environment. You proactively seek alignment on the strategy and reach for support to unblock.
  • You are experienced in delivering projects end to end autonomously.
  • You have the inclination to collaborate and ability to communicate technical ideas clearly. You enjoy contributing to architecture discussions and influence peers and stakeholders to make better decisions.
  • You love working with Cloud technologies and have experience in working with AWS, Azure or Google Cloud. We use Google Cloud with a mix of services - Kubernetes, Dataflow, PubSub etc.
