Your Mission

• Design the target-state data architecture: Postgres CDC → Kafka → Snowflake → client-facing data products.

• Own tooling decisions across ingestion, orchestration, transformation, and quality layers.

• Implement CDC-based ingestion from PostgreSQL services (RDS, Aurora, EC2, K8s operator) using Debezium or equivalent.

• Build streaming and near-real-time pipelines with defined SLAs.

• Build a data quality control layer: checksums, reconciliation, schema validation, anomaly detection, and alerting.

• Define quality checkpoints across the full pipeline — from source capture through Snowflake to client delivery.

• Define and enforce data contracts with service-owning teams for core entities: transaction, merchant, settlement, and processing status.

• Build the external data delivery layer: financial settlement, transaction status, processor reconciliation, and client analytics.

• Design tenant separation and implement replay/reload mechanisms for failure recovery.

• Start hands-on, then gradually hire and grow a small data engineering team as the function matures.
  Build a pragmatic roadmap with concrete deliverables at 3, 6, and 12 months.

What Makes You a Great Fit

• 5+ years in data engineering with end-to-end ownership of production pipelines.

• Hands-on with Snowflake, PostgreSQL CDC (Debezium preferred), and Kafka.

• Solid AWS experience — S3, RDS, Aurora, and cloud data infrastructure.

• Data quality engineering mindset: monitoring, reconciliation, lineage.

• Comfortable defining data contracts and driving requirements with backend engineering teams.

• Technical leadership experience: project ownership, cross-team alignment, delivery under constraints.

• Kubernetes, Airflow/Prefect/Dagster, and dbt are strong pluses.

• Payments domain knowledge — settlement, transaction lifecycle, processor integrations — is a strong plus.

• Familiarity with gRPC, RabbitMQ, and reading Go/Python service code is expected.

• English language skills at the B2 level and fluent russian language.
