Job Description

We’re seeking a highly skilled Data Engineer to design, build, and maintain production-grade data pipelines that process and transform terabytes of data. This role involves close collaboration with data scientists and software engineers to ensure data infrastructure is scalable, reliable, and cost-effective.

Pipeline Development & Deployment - Architect, develop, and deploy batch and streaming pipelines using Airflow and containerized workflows for cybersecurity use cases.

Containerize data-processing jobs with Docker, orchestrate with Kubernetes, and manage releases using Helm charts.

Distributed Computing - Build high-throughput data transformations using Dask or Apache Spark.

Maintain training data clusters across hybrid environments (on-prem and cloud).

Optimize training jobs for performance, resiliency, and cost efficiency.

Monitoring & Reliability - Implement observability solutions (logging, metrics, alerting) to maintain pipeline health and SLA adherence.

Troubleshoot, debug, and resolve data-processing failures in production environments.

Collaboration & Best Practices - Work with cross-functional teams to define data contracts, schemas, and quality checks.

Enforce software engineering best practices: CI/CD, code reviews, automated testing, and documentation.

Data Modeling & Storage - Design and maintain data models and schemas for AI/ML continuous training use cases.

Load and manage data in cloud storage and data lakes, ensuring performance and accessibility.
