[Remote] Software Engineer, Data Platform

Remote · Germany Full-time

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Persona is a configurable identity platform built for businesses in a digital-first world. They are seeking passionate engineers to build the data foundation for the identity layer of the internet, focusing on designing, building, and operating systems that handle massive data at scale.

Responsibilities

  • Build and scale our datalake — the pipelines that feed it and the storage design that keeps it fast and efficient
  • Develop high-throughput data-movement and ingestion services that bring data into the platform reliably and at scale
  • Own streaming and batch ingestion and the change-data-capture pipelines that absorb billions of records and terabytes of data per day
  • Build new query and analytics capabilities directly on the datalake — for use cases that don't fit a traditional warehouse
  • Operate the low-latency serving layer for real-time, high-concurrency access to platform data
  • Partner with infrastructure and product teams to provision, secure, and scale the platform

Skills

  • 3+ years of experience in software engineering, with a focus on data infrastructure or large-scale distributed systems
  • Proficiency in Python — our primary language across pipelines. Our newest services are written in Go, so you either work in Go today or are excited to ramp into it
  • Hands-on experience with big-data or streaming technologies such as Spark, Kafka, or Flink, and interest in lakehouse table formats like Iceberg
  • Experience building and operating scalable data pipelines across structured and unstructured data
  • Strong fundamentals in distributed systems, storage, and performance/cost optimization
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills across engineering, data science, and infrastructure teams
  • ClickHouse
  • DuckDB
  • Google Cloud (GCP)
  • Kubernetes
  • MySQL
  • MongoDB
