Requirements

  • 5+ years of production-grade Python expertise.
  • Proven experience in job orchestration using Prefect or Airflow.
  • Solid experience with AWS services, specifically S3, Lambda, SQS, and ECS.
  • Strong experience with relational databases (MySQL/PostgreSQL) and processing large-scale file-based data.
  • Ability to write clean, maintainable code with clear logic.

Responsibilities

  • Design and implement orchestration using Prefect or Airflow, including alerting, observability dashboards, and safe job re-run capabilities.
  • Instrument services with structured logging and metrics to eliminate the need for direct production server access.
  • Manage the data layer for file ingestion: landing raw scheme files to S3, parsing/transforming them, and persisting to PostgreSQL or RDS for reconciliation.
