We are looking for a visionary technical leader who is a master of distributed data processing (Scala/Spark) and passionate about the intersection of data engineering and Artificial Intelligence. You’ll serve as a force multiplier, working closely with engineering leadership, product managers, and analysts in a collaborative environment where rapid innovation and systemic impact matter.
We believe the best software is built by highly aligned, autonomous teams that take ownership and move quickly. We use agile development practices, modern tooling, and strong engineering discipline to deliver early and often. We care deeply about architectural excellence, data correctness, system reliability, and building intelligent systems the right way.
Position Description
As a Staff Data Engineer, you will set the technical direction for DISQO’s ad measurement platform. You will architect, build, and scale our most complex data pipelines while spearheading the integration of Generative AI capabilities directly into our core data infrastructure and products. You will tackle our hardest scalability challenges, utilizing expert-level Spark and Scala to process massive datasets, while leveraging LLMs to unlock new value from unstructured and structured data.
Operating with a high degree of autonomy, you will lead cross-functional technical initiatives, drive architectural decisions, and pioneer how we use AI to enrich data, automate pipelines, and improve data quality. You will mentor senior and mid-level engineers, raising the technical bar for the entire team while expanding DISQO's technical depth across big data systems, cloud infrastructure, and applied AI.

What you will do:
Architect and Lead: Design, build, and maintain highly scalable, fault-tolerant data pipelines using expert-level Scala and Apache Spark.
Gen AI Integration: Pioneer the use of Generative AI within our data ecosystem—incorporating LLMs to enrich datasets, extract value from unstructured data, automate metadata generation, and build intelligent data products.
Cross-Functional Strategy: Partner with Product and Engineering leadership to translate complex business requirements into forward-looking data and AI-augmented architectures.
Optimize Systems: Architect and aggressively optimize large-scale ETL/ELT workflows. Dive deep into Spark internals to resolve complex performance bottlenecks, memory issues, and data skew.
Modern AI Tooling: Implement and manage infrastructure to support AI integration, including vector databases, embeddings pipelines, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures.
Set the Standard: Write clean, highly optimized, and maintainable code, while establishing standards for code quality, testing, and system architecture across the organization.
Ensure Operational Excellence: Champion data quality, observability, and system health to consistently meet enterprise SLAs and customer commitments.
Mentorship: Actively mentor engineers, lead technical design reviews, and foster a culture of continuous learning and technical rigor.
What we're looking for:
8+ years of experience building, architecting, and supporting complex production data pipelines, distributed systems, and backend infrastructure.
Expert-Level Scala & Spark: Deep, hands-on expertise in Scala and Apache Spark. You must understand Spark internals, query plans, memory management, and advanced performance tuning for massive-scale batch processing.
Applied Generative AI Experience: Proven experience integrating Gen AI / LLMs (e.g., OpenAI APIs, Anthropic, Bedrock) into data products or data engineering workflows. Hands on experience developing with AI dev tools such as Claude code, etc
Strong Python Skills: Proficiency in Python specifically to interface with modern AI ecosystems, data APIs, and orchestration tools.
Cloud Mastery: Extensive architectural experience within the AWS ecosystem (EMR, Glue, Athena, S3, Bedrock, etc.).
Core Data Foundations: Deep understanding of advanced ETL/ELT concepts, complex data modeling, and performance-tuning SQL.
Orchestration: Expert-level experience with workflow orchestration tools such as Airflow.
Leadership: Proven track record of leading technical initiatives, making architectural decisions, and mentoring teams in an agile, fast-moving environment.
Nice to have:
Experience with Snowflake or other modern cloud data warehouses.
Deep exposure to streaming or real-time event processing (Kafka, Flink, Kinesis, etc.).
Experience utilizing AI for automated data observability, anomaly detection, or data quality tooling.
Background in ad tech, measurement, attribution modeling, or specialized analytics platforms.
