What I'm looking for

I seek a senior role building scalable streaming and data platforms, focusing on performance, reliability, and cross-team collaboration in cloud-native environments.

Experienced Senior Data Platform Engineer with 7.5+ years of expertise in designing, building, and managing scalable data platforms and real-time streaming systems. Skilled in Apache Kafka (Strimzi, MSK, Confluent Cloud), Apache Flink, Apache Beam, Spark, and AWS Glue for large-scale data processing and streaming analytics.

Hands-on experience with Elasticsearch, PostgreSQL, Redis, and DynamoDB for storage, indexing, caching, and fast data retrieval. Proficient in deploying and orchestrating data services on Kubernetes, Docker, and AWS EKS using Helm and FluxCD.

Focused on building zone-aware, cost-optimized architectures leveraging S3-based storage, OpenEBS, and rack-aware Kafka replication to minimize cross-zone network costs. Adept at developing resilient ETL pipelines, implementing retry and error-handling mechanisms, and ensuring high availability and data integrity across distributed systems.

Strong programming foundation in Python and SQL, with experience automating workflows using Airflow and integrating data across real-time and batch systems. Passionate about optimizing performance, improving reliability, and driving innovation in cloud-native data ecosystems.
