About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Define and guide the technical vision for a key DGX Cloud Data Platform domain
  • Own architecture, interfaces, and growth while addressing scale, reliability, performance, security, compatibility, and cost
  • Lead technical delivery of complex cross-team initiatives
  • Translate unclear requirements into architectures and interfaces, coordinate implementation, write essential code, resolve technical obstacles, and guide secure production integrations
  • Architect, implement, and evolve batch and streaming systems for fleet, capacity, utilization, cost, scheduling, and operational telemetry
  • Build shared platform capabilities, libraries, workflow/orchestration abstractions, deployment tooling, and implementation standards
  • Lead high-impact production investigations across pipelines, applications, query engines, distributed processing, storage, networks, and cloud services
  • Establish root causes, drive durable resolution, and implement preventive improvements
  • Drive engineering standards for testing, data quality, reconciliation, lineage, SLOs, observability, secure identities, least privilege, release readiness, and auditable deployments
  • Establish data models, semantics, ownership boundaries, and serving interfaces
  • Provide tables, APIs, automation, dashboards, and internal applications for trusted DGX Cloud data access
  • Provide technical leadership through architecture and build reviews, mentorship of senior engineers, and evidence-based tradeoff resolution

Requirements

What you’ll need
  • 8+ years of relevant industry experience
  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience
  • Master’s degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field
  • Sustained record of personally crafting, implementing, and operating production software, data platforms, databases, or distributed systems
  • End-to-end technical ownership of a multi-system platform domain or complex cross-team engineering initiative
  • Deep hands-on experience with distributed processing, analytical or relational databases, production ETL, change-data capture, streaming or event processing, or backend and cloud systems handling large data volumes
  • Strong software engineering fundamentals and production proficiency in a backend or systems language
  • Deep experience with data-processing and platform libraries or frameworks
  • Experience crafting reusable abstractions, reviewing substantial changes, and debugging critical code paths
  • Strong SQL and data-modeling skills
  • Practical depth in query execution, incremental processing, schema evolution, consistency, analytical consumption, idempotency, replay, late-arriving data, partial failure, and cross-system correctness
  • Skill diagnosing failures using logs, metrics, traces, query plans, profiles, and controlled experiments
  • Strong architectural judgment across reliability, performance, cost, security, compatibility, and maintainability
  • Experience guiding major migrations or architectural changes across teams without interrupting production service
  • Experience establishing production safeguards and engineering practices adopted by multiple teams, including automated testing, CI/CD, monitoring, alerting, rollback, incident response, and secure deployment
  • Deep experience with distributed data processing and lakehouse architectures, or equivalent large-scale database/data-processing platforms
  • Experience operating distributed streaming or event-driven systems, including partitioning, consumer behavior, flow control, replay, delivery guarantees, and schema evolution
  • Experience scaling, migrating, or improving performance of relational, distributed, time-series, object-storage, or searchable-content data systems
  • Background operating cloud infrastructure, container orchestration, workload schedulers, compute or GPU clusters, and fleet-scale telemetry
  • Experience defining and owning production adoption of agentic systems or workflow automation, focusing on evaluation, permissions, observability, failure recovery, and measurable improvements
