Senior Software Engineer Data Platform - Costa Mesa, CA - $170k-$200k + RSUs - Relocation support available - US citizenship or Green Card required

I'm partnering with a fast-scaling technology company on a senior platform hire. They operate in a complex, hardware-integrated environment and are at an inflection point - standing up large-scale manufacturing operations and needing the data infrastructure to match. This is a builder role for someone who thinks in systems, not features.

What you'll be doing:

  • Lead the design and roadmap for the data platform
  • Build and own real-time streaming pipelines and batch data systems
  • Architect and evolve the data lake, including modernisation and scalability
  • Own ingest and egress frameworks that stitch together multiple data sources
  • Build backend data services on top of the lake
  • Drive reliability, observability, and SLA ownership across the platform
  • Partner with engineering, operations, and analytics teams to advocate best practices

What they're looking for:

  • 6+ years blending software engineering and data platform experience
  • Strong Python, SQL, and Java or Scala
  • Hands-on experience with Spark and Kafka or Flink
  • Solid distributed systems and architecture fundamentals
  • Experience maintaining and evolving a data lake
  • Background in hardware, manufacturing, or physical system data is a strong plus
  • High ownership mindset - platform-level thinking, not just feature development

US citizenship or Green Card required.
