Our client is a global jewelry manufacturer and reaches millions of people across more than 100 countries, and every one of those touchpoints depends on data flowing cleanly from source systems into a governed, trusted foundation.
This role is not about building processing pipelines or designing domain data models — that work belongs to the D&A engineers who build on top of what you provide. Your job is to build the Python-based services and automation that provision, govern, and harden the company's data storage infrastructure as it rolls out a new data strategy.
This is a high-impact, high-ownership role for an engineer who takes pride in building infrastructure that other engineers can trust and build on without thinking twice.
Responsibilities
- Design, build, and maintain the platform's REST APIs and automations that provision and govern analytics tools on Azure
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, automated builds, and deployment tooling for platform and infrastructure components
- Implement monitoring, observability, and alerting across distributed cloud systems to ensure platform reliability
- Contribute to architectural discussions and help shape the technical direction of the data platform
- Mentor peers and provide technical leadership within the team
- Partner with D&A engineers and other stakeholders to ensure the platform meets the needs of teams building on top of it
- Champion engineering best practices: clean code, testability, modularity, and disciplined version control
Skills Required
- 5+ years of experience as a software engineer on enterprise-scale projects
- Background in building and operating modular monolith platforms
- Well-versed in
Azure cloud services
- Proficient in Python and Bash,
with strong software engineering fundamentals: clean code, testability, modularity, and disciplined version control

applied at platform scale
- Well-versed in Azure cloud services
- A track record of building and operating CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure and platform tooling
- Skilled at implementing monitoring, observability, and alerting for distributed or cloud systems

- Fluent English, written and spoken
Nice to Have:
- Experience with Databricks, Power BI, OpenMetadata, Apache Kafka or Kubernetes
