The team partners closely with product and platform groups to deliver reliable, observable services for financial services use cases.

Responsibilities:

* Design, build and maintain robust, scalable services and data processing pipelines in Python and PySpark on AWS.
* Implement automation across testing, quality, security and deployment, embedding unit, integration and contract tests into CI/CD.
* Orchestrate and operate jobs and workflows using Airflow and AWS Glue, ensuring reliability, cost efficiency and observability.
* Collaborate with product, platform and QA to ensure systems are testable, observable and resilient, with clear SLOs and dashboards.
* Own features end to end including design, implementation, code reviews, performance tuning, deployment and production support.
* Contribute to engineering standards, code quality and governance, including DevSecOps practices and release processes.
* Mentor engineers, promote best practices and continuously improve tooling, pipelines and developer experience.

Mandatory Skills:

* Artificial Intelligence (AI)
* AWS Glue
* PySpark
* Python
* SQL

Mandatory Skills Description:

* 8+ years of hands-on programming and software development.
* Proven ability to design and build automation frameworks.
* Familiarity with observability tools and microservices architecture.
* The successful applicant will use a broad range of tools, languages, and frameworks. We encourage applicants who might have a strong number of skills below, even if you do not know all of them.
* Python and scripting: Strong hands‑on development in Python plus pragmatic shell scripting in Linux environments.
* AWS data stack: Commercial experience with AWS Glue, Spark/PySpark and S3 for large‑scale data processing.
* Orchestration: Building, scheduling and operating pipelines with Airflow including DAG design, retries and SLAs.
* SQL and RDBMS: Solid SQL for data transformation and analysis, with exposure to Teradata or Oracle.
* CI/CD and shift‑left testing, DevSecops: Unit, integration and contract tests embedded in pipelines using Git‑based workflows and common tools such as TeamCity, GitHub Actions, Jenkins or Octopus.
* Observability: Practical use of logging, metrics and tracing with tools like CloudWatch and Splunk to monitor production health.
* Cloud‑native engineering: Designing for scalability, reliability and cost on AWS, following security and governance standards.
* AI skills: Effective use of AI coding assistants and test‑generation tools e.g. (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Roo code) to accelerate development while maintaining quality.

Nice-to-Have Skills Description:

* Ab Initio or SAS: Prior experience integrating or migrating legacy ETL workloads.
* Data warehousing: Knowledge of Redshift, Athena, EMR or Iceberg formats.
* API and microservices: Experience testing and integrating with RESTful services and event streams.
* Test automation frameworks: Familiarity with Playwright, DevTest, Appium, Sahi or similar, plus contract testing.
* Dashboards and reporting: Building engineering or quality dashboards for delivery and production health.
* Team leadership: Mentoring engineers and uplifting standards across squads.
