The role is focused on hands-on software engineering for data products, streaming applications, distributed systems, and analytics workloads. The engineer will work with development, testing, and cross-technology teams to design solutions, write production code, and contribute technical ideas.

Key Responsibilities

• Build and operate Kafka-based streaming applications for ingestion, filtering, enrichment, and replication use cases.
• Develop data processing jobs using Apache Spark and/or Apache Flink while following established platform patterns and guidelines.
• Design and develop highly performant, scalable, complex, and distributed systems end to end.
• Communicate technical solutions and product ideas through design reviews, code reviews, proof-of-concepts, and show-and-tell sessions.
• Contribute ideas related to technology, algorithms, and products.
• Collaborate with development, testing, and cross-technology teams to define development strategies and plans and implement product requirements through code.

Required Skills

• Strong foundations in data structures, algorithms, and object-oriented design.
• Ability to use AI development tools such as GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or Codex during design, development, and testing.
• Strong experience with Java, Scala, Go (Golang), or other modern programming technologies.
• Strong SQL skills and understanding of data modeling for analytical workloads.

Preferred Skills

• Experience building large asynchronous task systems and scalable distributed systems, with an understanding of microservices architecture.
• Experience working with Apache Kafka and scaling streaming workloads.
• Practical experience with Apache Spark and Apache Flink.
• Experience with query engines such as Trino or Presto.
• Hands-on experience with analytics stores such as Apache Pinot or Apache Iceberg for low-latency analytical queries.
• Experience with Docker or other configuration management tools.
• Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS.

Education

• M.Tech/M.E. in Computer Science or Information Technology, or a related field.
• B.Tech/B.E. in a relevant discipline with at least 2 years of relevant professional experience.

The supplied SoftoJobs branch master directly supports Computer Science and Information Technology. The JD also says "related field" or "relevant discipline" without defining additional specific branches, so no narrower branch expansion is applied to those statements.

Experience

The JD requires a master's degree with no stated experience requirement, or a bachelor's degree with at least 2 years of relevant professional experience. The normalized experience range is represented as 0–2 years to cover the two stated education pathways.
