📋 Description

• Own the architecture and evolution of large-scale data processing and analytics systems, from ingestion and normalization through transformation, aggregation, and customer-facing analytics • Design and evolve data models supporting high-volume analytical workloads while balancing query performance, storage efficiency, maintainability, and scalability • Design and optimize complex analytical SQL queries across large datasets, identifying performance bottlenecks and developing scalable solutions • Architect distributed and asynchronous job processing systems for reliable processing of large data volumes across concurrent workloads • Design and evolve Spark, Flink, or similar data-processing workflows for large-scale transformation, enrichment, aggregation, and computation • Drive effective use of SingleStore/MemSQL, including schema design, indexing and partitioning strategies, query optimization, and workload design • Establish architectural patterns for batch processing, data transformation, job orchestration, failure recovery, idempotency, and reprocessing • Diagnose complex performance and scalability issues across databases, distributed processing systems, application services, and infrastructure • Partner with engineering and product teams to translate ambiguous analytical and data-processing requirements into scalable technical architectures • Define technical standards and reusable patterns for data modeling, data processing, and analytical query development • Provide technical leadership across engineering initiatives, influencing architecture and mentoring engineers while remaining hands-on with implementation • Identify architectural limitations and lead improvements to increase platform scalability, reliability, and performance

🎯 Requirements

• 10+ years of professional software engineering, data engineering, or data platform experience, with significant experience designing and operating production data systems • Deep expertise in relational and analytical data modeling, including designing schemas for large-scale analytical and reporting workloads • Expert-level SQL, with demonstrated experience designing, analyzing, and optimizing complex analytical queries over large datasets • Strong experience with SingleStore/MemSQL or comparable distributed SQL/analytical database technologies • Significant hands-on experience with Spark, Flink or similar technologies, including designing and optimizing distributed data-processing workloads • Strong understanding of distributed data processing, including partitioning, parallelism, data skew, resource utilization, and performance optimization • Experience designing high-throughput job processing systems, including scheduling, concurrency management, retries, failure recovery, idempotency, and observability • Experience designing data pipelines that support batch ingestion, transformation, enrichment, aggregation, and downstream analytics • Strong understanding of database performance characteristics, including indexing, partitioning, query execution plans, data distribution, and memory/compute trade-offs • Experience identifying and resolving performance bottlenecks across application, database, and data-processing layers • Proficiency in Python, Java or another production programming language used to build data-processing and distributed systems • Strong understanding of testing strategies for data-intensive systems, including unit, integration, data-quality, and end-to-end testing • Proven ability to independently own technically ambiguous problems and drive them from investigation through production implementation • Demonstrated ability to influence architecture and technical direction across multiple teams without relying solely on organizational authority • Ability to communicate complex data architecture and performance trade-offs clearly to engineers, product stakeholders, and technical leadership • Ability to collaborate effectively with distributed teams across multiple time zones • Preferred: Deep production experience with SingleStore/MemSQL, particularly with large-scale analytical workloads • Preferred: Advanced experience with pipeline performance tuning, partitioning strategies, memory management, and optimization of large distributed workloads • Preferred: Experience designing platforms that support a combination of high-volume ingestion and low-latency analytical queries • Preferred: Experience building or operating distributed job execution and orchestration systems • Preferred: Experience with large-scale cybersecurity, vulnerability, asset, telemetry, or event datasets • Preferred: Experience working with vulnerability scanning technologies across the security stack, including SCA, SAST, DAST, IAST, vulnerability scanning, and container security • Preferred: Experience designing systems for incremental processing, backfills, replay/reprocessing, deduplication, and late-arriving data • Preferred: Experience with data observability and operational monitoring for large-scale processing workloads • Preferred: Experience integrating AI/LLM-driven capabilities with data platforms, including preparing and processing large datasets for AI-assisted analytical workflows • Preferred: Experience operating data-intensive applications on Linux and cloud infrastructure • Preferred: Familiarity with Agile/Scrum methodologies in a professional engineering environment

🏖️ Benefits

• Flexible PTO • 401k company contribution (not a match, a contribution) • Generous education and training budget • 100% company-paid healthcare • Fully remote work
