• Develop data platform based on open source software and Cloud services

• Build and run ETL pipelines to onboard data into the platform, define schema, build DAG processing pipelines and monitor data quality.

• Help develop machine learning development framework and pipelines

• Manage and run mission crucial production services

What we're looking for:

• Senior level Python

• Very good knowledge of AWS (most of it works on this), daily work in Prefect (you don't need to know it, if you know Airflow or similar, that's enough), Kafka, SQL, databases, GitLab, and k8s and Linux are on the production environment. Terraform - nice to have

• English min. C1

🎁 What We Offer

• Competitive daily rate (B2B)

• Hardware & setup budget (e.g., standing desk, laptop, monitors, coworking space)

• Optional integration trips (New York / London / Warsaw) — 3–4 days, covered by the company
