You'll work at the intersection of our MMP product stack and core data infrastructure, partnering closely with platform engineers to deliver performant, cost-efficient, and resilient pipelines.

• Understanding of distributed systems, data modeling, and real-time data processing.
• Hands-on experience with AWS cloud tools and big data platforms such as Kafka, Flink, Spark, Airflow, dbt, Druid.
• A solid grasp of data warehousing principles and familiarity with columnar storage formats (Parquet, Avro).

• Strong communication skills and a desire to collaborate across time zones and teams.

Nice to Have

• Experience with mobile attribution, ad tech, or analytics pipelines.

• Comfort working with monitoring, observability, and data quality frameworks (e.g., Prometheus, Great Expectations).

Why Join Branch
