At Wishlink, you get to work in a fast-emerging consumer-tech startup and play an integral part in building the creator-enabled eCommerce space.
What would you be doing?
• Watch Reels and YouTube videos every day & level up on your fashion sense!
• This is a hands-on engineering role where you will actively build and write production code — not just manage or delegate.
• Design, build, and maintain scalable batch and near real-time data pipelines.
• Develop ETL/ELT pipelines using Python, SQL, and Spark/PySpark on Databricks.
• Build Bronze, Silver, and Gold data models using a Lakehouse (Medallion) architecture.
• Optimize Spark jobs for performance, scalability, and cost.
• Work with structured and semi-structured datasets from multiple sources.
• Develop reusable, production-ready data engineering frameworks.
• Own data quality, monitoring, and pipeline reliability as measurable outcomes.
• Collaborate closely with Product, Analytics, and Business teams.
• Participate in code reviews and production support.
• Navigate our current stack: Spark, Databricks, Delta Lake (Medallion architecture), BigQuery, Airbyte, and Power BI.
What are we looking for?
• If you are a content creator yourself or have worked closely in the social media space, we like you already :)
• 3+ years of professional experience in Data Engineering, with a strong software engineering foundation.
• Strong SQL skills (joins, CTEs, window functions, query optimization).
• Hands-on Python programming skills.
• Hands-on experience with Apache Spark / PySpark / Databricks.
• Solid knowledge of data warehousing and data modeling.
• Experience with ETL/ELT and incremental data processing.
• Experience with the AWS or GCP cloud ecosystem.
• Strong communication skills — you can translate between data engineering and business/analytics stakeholders.
Good to Have
• Airbyte, Kafka, or CDC concepts.
• Delta Lake or Apache Iceberg.
• Airflow or Databricks Workflows.
• Docker / Kubernetes.
• Performance tuning and partitioning strategies.
