Full Job Description

Job Description

The Principal Streaming Data Architect will lead the real-time data streaming and processing architecture for our nationwide sensor detection platform. He/She will work with our engineering, product, compliance, and infrastructure teams in developing a stateful, low-latency stream processing engine capable of handling thousands of messages per second from distributed sensors. These real-time data pipelines will be used by our customers to monitor secure perimeters, track asset movements, and ensure public safety.

  • Assess our existing data ingestion and processing solutions (including Azure Event Hubs and Azure Databricks) and advise on the optimal stream processing frameworks to process high-velocity data efficiently and securely.

  • Use advanced distributed systems engineering to design and develop stateful stream processing applications that achieve sub-second deduplication of sensor broadcast messages across thousands of sensors.

  • Design and implement a robust schema registry and event-driven data modeling strategy to ensure consistency and high data quality across all sensor telemetry pipelines.

  • Build the technical data governance foundation within the streaming architecture, ensuring strict data lineage, metadata management, and auditability of data flows.

  • Collaborate with Data Science teams to operationalize and deploy real-time machine learning models (e.g., anomaly detection, predictive tracking) directly into the stream processing pipelines.

  • Develop processes and patterns to consume telemetry from ingestion layers while ensuring fault tolerance, zero data loss, and end-to-end latency from sensor to UI.

  • Partner with DevSecOps to ensure data-in-transit and in-memory state comply with strict CJIS, FIPS 140-3, and FedRAMP High standards.

  • Develop the technical skills of junior and mid-level team members by providing hands-on architecture reviews and mentorship.

  • Work directly with the geospatial data engineering and backend teams to design, implement, and validate pipelines that anonymize data in-stream and feed both real-time UIs and spatial databases.
