This team has embarked on a major transformational journey to build and implement best of breed revenue and billing applications to transform our business as well as technology.

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer who will work in Core Billing Platform with strong hands-on experience in PySpark, Spark SQL, and Scala to design, develop, and optimize scalable data pipelines for large-scale data processing.

The ideal candidate should have deep expertise in distributed data processing, ETL development, performance tuning, and big data ecosystem technologies. This role requires end-to-end ownership of data pipelines, from ingestion and transformation to storage and consumption, while ensuring high performance, reliability, and data quality.

Exposure to AI/GenAI enabled data engineering solutions is a plus.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain scalable data pipelines using PySpark, Spark SQL, and Scala
• Build and optimize complex ETL workflows for extracting, transforming, and loading data across multiple systems such as Oracle, PostgreSQL, Hive, Hadoop, and cloud-based data platforms
• Develop and optimize Spark jobs for large-scale batch and, where applicable, streaming data processing
• Write efficient Spark SQL queries and optimize data transformations for performance and scalability
• Implement data processing strategies including partitioning, caching, parallel processing, file format optimization, and job tuning
• Architect and implement big data solutions using Spark, Hive, Hadoop ecosystem, Delta Lake, and related technologies
• Build end-to-end data flows from data ingestion → transformation → storage → consumption layers
• Develop config-driven, reusable ETL frameworks, automation utilities, and common data engineering components
• Ensure data quality, integrity, accuracy, and consistency across data pipelines
• Perform performance tuning, debugging, troubleshooting, and root-cause analysis of data pipeline issues
• Collaborate with business stakeholders, data analysts, architects, and engineering teams to translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions
• Create and maintain technical documentation, data flow diagrams, data models, and architecture artifacts
• Follow engineering best practices around code quality, version control, CI/CD, testing, deployment, monitoring, and alerting
• Mentor junior engineers and promote best practices in data engineering and big data development
• Explore and integrate AI/GenAI capabilities where applicable for automation, data validation, anomaly detection, and ETL optimization
  
  

This is a hybrid position. Expectation of days in office will be confirmed by your hiring manager.
