  • Experience: At least 10 years of experience in software engineering, with a focus on large-scale distributed systems or platform services.
  • Leadership: Proven ability to lead initiatives, mentor senior engineers, and influence technical direction across organizational boundaries.
  • Domain Knowledge: Deep understanding of the Kafka ecosystem, event-driven design, and cloud-native architectures.

Technology Must-Haves
  • Languages: Golang and/or Python.
  • Eventing: Apache Kafka (Brokers, Connect, Schema Registry).
  • Orchestration: Kubernetes and Docker.
  • Infrastructure: Terraform (IaC).
  • Data: Modern RDBMS (Postgres, MS SQL) and NoSQL databases.
  • API: RESTful API design and Microservice architecture.

Technology Must-Haves or Dedicate to Learning Quickly
  • GitOps: Helm and ArgoCD.
  • Automation: GitHub Actions and Agentic/AI-driven automation frameworks.
  • Observability: Prometheus, Grafana, and Splunk.
  • Front-End: Modern Web UI Frameworks (React, Angular) for platform dashboards.
