• Use Datadog and other observability tools to proactively monitor, detect, and resolve system bottlenecks.
• Collaborate with Data Developers, SRE, and Infrastructure teams to ensure system scalability and disaster recovery readiness.
• Contribute to projects involving big data platforms, SMB clusters, and Palantir Foundry.
• Continuously improve automation, processes, and system resilience.

Who You Are

• Hands-on engineer with strong proficiency in Python and SQL.
• Experienced in profiling and optimizing ETL systems and large-scale data pipelines.
• Familiar with IT infrastructure, working experience in datacentre or any cloud platform (AWS, Azure, etc.) will be a plus.
• Comfortable working with distributed systems / big data projects (SMB clusters, Palantir Foundry, Databricks, etc. are a plus).
• Familiar with monitoring and observability tools (Datadog or similar).
• Strong problem-solver with the ability to dive deep into complex technical issues.
• Financial services or exposure to data-intensive domains is preferred.
• Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
