Lead Data Engineer

We're looking for a Lead Data Engineer to architect and drive the development of large-scale, real-time data systems that power mission-critical platforms. You'll design and build robust backend and streaming infrastructure, lead high-impact projects from concept to production, and work closely with cross-functional teams.

This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who loves solving hard data engineering problems at scale — from real-time stream processing to distributed systems architecture.

What you'll do:

• Architect and develop robust, scalable systems using Python, with a focus on real-time applications.
• Design and implement big data solutions using Kafka, and Spark, to process high-throughput, real-time data feeds.
• Lead the development of innovative, high-impact projects such as real-time tracking and optimization platforms, and large-scale operational management solutions.
• Contribute to and evolve backend architecture
• Collaborate with product, engineering, and operations teams across multiple countries to deliver end-to-end solutions.
• Mentor engineers and help set technical direction and best practices for the data engineering team.

What we're looking for:

• Strong experience with Kafka and real-time/streaming data architectures.
• Proficiency in Python.
• Proven track record designing and scaling distributed, high-throughput backend systems.
• Hands-on experience with big data and stream-processing frameworks (Spark or similar).
• Comfortable leading projects end-to-end and working with cross-border, cross-functional teams.
• Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate effectively across time zones and cultures.

What you'll get:

• A warm and supportive work environment where you can reach your full potential
• Flexible working hours that allow you to balance your work and personal life
• Unlimited home office to help you stay productive and focused
• Opportunities for professional development, including certifications and training
• Additional benefits for academic teaching and speaking engagements
• Knowledge-sharing sessions where you can learn from our Dreamix team
• Team and company-wide events that bring us together
• Amazing week long summer office and winter office initiatives
• Additional health insurance and dental allowance to ensure your well-being
• Multisport card to encourage a healthy and active lifestyle
• Office massages to help you relax and unwind
