About the role and project
We’re looking for an experienced data engineer to help us migrate our data platform from the home-brew solution based on Postgres to Databricks platform.
At least 3 years of experience working with Databricks, Spark, and AWS is a must.
The project includes rewriting parts of the existing code responsible for logic and data transformations from Go to the new platform, so knowledge of Python or Java and SQL is required.
The migration project is still in the research phase. We have a decent definition of the scope, but the final decisions on the approach and architecture will be made based on the input from the person selected for the role.
This role will be working closely with our Head of Engineering, Senior Software Engineers, and Data Scientist, but will be the only Data Engineer on the team, so we’re looking for somebody who feels comfortable completing projects end-to-end.
A good understanding of Terraform and Git is preferred.
Some knowledge of Go will be a big plus.
A decent command of English is required.
Compensation and benefits
It can be a PART-TIME, FULL-TIME or CONTRACT position. We’re flexible. Terms, compensation, and contract details are to be negotiated individually.
It can be a remote, in-office (in Krakow), or hybrid work situation. Hours are flexible.
Equipment and additional benefits also to be negotiated individually.
