Join a transversal SRE community embedded in a product-oriented Data Platform team of 40–50 engineers, analysts, and data scientists across France and Spain. You'll drive the reliability and scalability of a next-generation Lakehouse platform — anchored on Trino, Iceberg, and on-prem object storage — while leading the transition from public cloud to a resilient hybrid/on-prem architecture.

  • Own reliability of core data services: Trino, Iceberg, S3 / Ceph, Kafka, Kafka Connect, Schema Registry
  • Define and enforce SLIs/SLOs, error budgets, and on-call runbooks — solid SRE foundations are non-negotiable
  • Build full-stack observability with Prometheus and Grafana: metrics, dashboards, alerting pipelines, and anomaly detection
  • Manage and harden PostgreSQL clusters via Patroni for high-availability control-plane services
  • Operate and scale Kafka Connect clusters: connector lifecycle, offset management, dead-letter queues, and task rebalancing
  • Maintain the Schema Registry as the single source of truth for Avro/Protobuf/JSON schemas — enforce compatibility rules and schema evolution policies
  • Monitor consumer lag, connector throughput, and broker health via Prometheus JMX exporters and Grafana dashboards
  • Ensure end-to-end data contract integrity between producers and Iceberg/S3 consumers
  • Operate production Kubernetes clusters (GKE/EKS + on-prem) — capacity planning, upgrades, PodDisruptionBudgets, resource quotas
  • Architect and manage Kube-in-Kube topologies to provide strong tenant isolation for data platform workloads — each team gets a dedicated virtual cluster without the overhead of a full physical cluster
  • Automate infrastructure and resource provisioning with Crossplane: define composite resources (XRDs) so data teams can self-serve Kafka topics, Trino namespaces, and S3 buckets through Kubernetes-native APIs
  • Maintain GitOps pipelines for platform deployment and configuration drift detection
  • Migrate from public cloud data warehouse to VeepeeCloud Iceberg-based lakehouse — managing coexistence, schema evolution, and time-travel
  • Architect resilient ingestion, transformation, and serving layers around Trino + S3
  • Optimize Trino query performance: memory limits, spilling, cost-based optimizer tuning
  • Build agentic self-service tooling so data teams can provision Trino/Iceberg resources and Kafka Connect pipelines autonomously via Crossplane — reducing toil and ops bottlenecks
  • Develop FinOps dashboards (compute, storage, query cost) with Grafana and Prometheus-based cost exporters
  • Write clear technical documentation, runbooks, and internal ADRs
  • Design and implement multi-datacenter strategies across FR1 / NL1 — active-active and active-passive topologies
  • Leverage Fast Erasure Coding on object storage (Ceph/S3) to maximize durability with minimal replication overhead
  • Ensure data replication consistency across sites for Iceberg table metadata, Trino catalogs, and Schema Registry subjects
  • Lead DRP exercises: failover playbooks, RTO/RPO validation, postmortems
  • Requirements
