Full Job Description
Job: You will build the data foundations that powers model training, product building and analytics across the company. You will work across the full lifecycle: designing pipelines that ingest and transform data at scale, building the storage and serving layers that make it fast and reliable to query, and establishing the quality, lineage, and observability systems that let others trust the data. You will anticipate scaling bottlenecks before they appear and make the architectural calls that keep the platform ahead of growing demand.

You: Have deep intuition on distributed data processing, data modeling, and system reliability. You like to reason about the trade-offs between batch and streaming, between storage cost and query performance, and between build-it-yourself and off-the-shelf infrastructure. You care about the data being right, not just available, and about building systems that teams across the company can depend on without a second thought.
