Description

  • Prototype batch and streaming ingestion and connector patterns using NiFi, Kafka, Kafka Connect/Streams, and CDC approaches.
  • Design schemas and data models that are easy to adopt and support clear semantics and controlled evolution.
  • Build incremental lakehouse datasets using Hudi, Iceberg, or Delta patterns and create queryable outputs for performance and latency evaluation.
  • Incorporate data quality, provenance, metadata, and operability considerations early in prototype development.
  • Containerize and deploy prototypes on Kubernetes and provide minimal runbooks and configuration files to support handoff.
  • Produce adoption artifacts including schemas, reference implementations, technical design notes, and integration backlogs.
  • Generate credible performance and operability readouts for new data initiatives.
  • Collaborate with delivery or foundation teams to enable productization of prototypes.

Requirements

  • 3+ years of data engineering experience, with hands-on pipeline delivery beyond ad hoc scripts.
  • Strong Python and SQL skills for transformations, validation tooling, and pipeline glue code.
  • Practical knowledge of streaming and CDC concepts, including ordering, duplication, replay, and idempotency.
  • Experience with the Kafka ecosystem.
  • Familiarity with lakehouse and storage/query layers such as Hudi, Iceberg, Delta, Trino, Hive, or Postgres.
  • Comfort working in Kubernetes and container-based environments.
  • Ability to document technical decisions clearly.
  • Eligible to work in Germany; EU or NATO citizenship is preferred and export-control screening applies.
  • Experience with Great Expectations or similar data quality tools is preferred.
  • Experience with metadata and lineage platforms such as OpenMetadata, DataHub, or Atlas is preferred.
  • Experience shipping in on-prem or air-gapped environments is preferred.
  • Governance and policy awareness for regulated customers is preferred.
  • German language proficiency at B1+ level is preferred.
  • Experience with OSINT, GEOINT, or multi-INT data shapes is preferred.

Benefits

  • Remote-first work in Germany with regular Berlin prototyping sprints.
  • 30 days of vacation.
  • Equipment and learning budget.
  • Opportunity to work with a modern data stack including Kafka, NiFi, lakehouse technologies, distributed SQL, and Kubernetes.
  • High-leverage work where prototypes become blueprints reused and productized by multiple teams.
