- Data Processing Expertise: Work extensively with large-scale data pipelines using Spark's core components (Spark SQL, DataFrames, RDDs, Datasets, and structured streaming).
- Performance Tuning: Conduct deep-dive performance analysis, debugging, and optimization of Spark jobs to reduce processing time and resource consumption.
- Cluster Management: Collaborate with DevOps and infrastructure teams to manage Spark clusters on platforms like Hadoop/YARN, Kubernetes, or cloud platforms (AWS EMR, GCP Dataproc, etc.).
- Real-time Data: Design and implement real-time data processing solutions using Apache Spark Streaming or Structured Streaming.
What makes you the right fit for this position:
- Expert in Apache Spark: In-depth knowledge of Spark architecture, execution models, and the components (Spark Core, Spark SQL, Spark Streaming, etc.)
- Data Engineering Practices: Solid understanding of ETL pipelines, data partitioning, shuffling, and serialization techniques to optimize Spark jobs.
- Big Data Ecosystem: Knowledge of related big data technologies such as Hadoop, Hive, Kafka, HDFS, and YARN.
- Performance Tuning and Debugging: Demonstrated ability to tune Spark jobs, optimize query execution, and troubleshoot performance bottlenecks.
