  • Design, develop, and maintain scalable systems for collecting, cataloging, storing, and processing petabytes of vehicle data
  • Architect robust log data storage solutions using AWS S3, and distributed systems to ensure data integrity and availability
  • Lead technical design discussions, create design documents, and drive architectural decisions for complex data platform features
  • Implement monitoring, alerting, and operational tooling to ensure high availability and reliability of data pipelines processing thousands of runs daily
  • Mentor junior engineers, conduct code reviews, and establish best practices for data platform development
  • Troubleshoot and resolve production issues in data ingestion and storage systems, participating in on-call rotations
  • 8+ years of software engineering experience in building large-scale distributed cloud storage systems or data platforms
  • Proficiency in Python and C++, or similar languages, with emphasis on writing clean, maintainable code
  • Extensive experience with cloud platforms (AWS preferred), including S3, Aurora, and EC2
  • Proven experience designing and operating large-scale data ingestion and storage systems handling petabytes of data
  • Demonstrated strong ownership by driving projects from conception to completion and collaborating effectively with cross-functional teams through clear communication.
