Senior AWS Data Engineer at BairesDev

In this role, you'll re-engineer an existing ingestion and lakehouse platform, redesigning retention, compaction, and recovery so restores are automated rather than manual. This is your opportunity to bring strong code-archaeology instincts to a real production challenge, introducing publish gates and automated recovery.

What You'll Do:

- Read and re-engineer existing ingestion and lakehouse code across Lambda, Glue, EventBridge, and Step Functions.

- Manage Apache Iceberg tables in the Gold zone, including retention and compaction strategy.

- Redesign recovery processes to automate restores that were previously manual.

- Introduce write-audit-publish patterns to prevent bad writes from landing silently.

- Work with Kafka on MSK for event processing across the pipeline.

What we are looking for:

- 5+ years of experience in data engineering with AWS.

- Strong experience with Apache Iceberg table management.

- Experience with AWS Glue ETL.

- Proficiency in Python.

- Experience with Kafka.

- Strong code-archaeology instincts, with proven experience reading and re-engineering existing systems rather than building greenfield.

- Advanced proficiency in English.

Nice to have:

- Experience with AWS Lambda.

- Familiarity with Step Functions and EventBridge.

- Experience with write-audit-publish patterns.

How we do make your work (and your life) easier:

- 100% remote work (from anywhere).

- Excellent compensation in USD or your local currency if preferred

- Hardware and software setup for you to work from home.

- Flexible hours: create your own schedule.

- Paid parental leaves, vacations, and holidays.

- Innovative and multicultural work environment: collaborate and learn from the global Top 1% of talent.

- Supportive environment with mentorship, promotions, skill development, and diverse growth opportunities.
