About The Role

We're seeking a Senior Software Engineer who excels at building high-performance distributed systems and thrives in a fast-paced startup environment. You'll be working on cutting-edge data infrastructure challenges that directly impact how Fortune 500 industrial companies manage their most critical operational data.

How you’ll demonstrate Ownership

  • Build high-performance data pipelines using Spark, Flink, and Kafka to process terabyte-scale industrial datasets.
  • Develop low-latency APIs and services supporting thousands of concurrent users with sub-second response times.
  • Optimize time-series, sensor, and operational data storage and retrieval for massive scale.
  • Engineer distributed processing solutions, including real-time streaming that handles millions of events per second.
  • Design and evolve cost-efficient data lake architectures (S3/GCS) using modern formats like Parquet/ORC.
  • Optimize OLAP query performance across systems such as ClickHouse, Pinot, or Druid.
  • Build fault-tolerant, highly-available systems with circuit breakers, retries, and distributed tracing.
  • Drive technical innovation through research, prototyping, and contributions to open-source.
  • Collaborate with product and architecture teams to translate complex industrial data problems into scalable, production-grade solutions.

The Impact you bring to Cognite

  • Deep expertise in Spark internals, including Catalyst optimizer, partitioning, and performance tuning.
  • Strong hands-on experience with Flink/Kafka for both streaming and batch workloads.
  • Proven ability to scale systems to 10K+ QPS with strong foundations in JVM performance, GC tuning, and memory management.
  • Experience building high-throughput REST/gRPC services and advanced caching with Redis/in-memory data structures.
  • Strong understanding of monitoring and observability (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry).
  • Solid architectural thinking with an ability to design distributed, secure, and resilient platforms.
  • Collaborative mindset with the ability to work across engineering, product, and platform teams.

Required Qualifications

  • 6–12 years of experience in distributed data systems, backend engineering, or platform engineering.
  • Strong programming skills in Scala, Java, or Python.
  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS/GCP/Azure) and data lake/object storage.
  • Prior experience with large-scale data, OLAP systems, or industrial/IoT data is a plus.
  • Contributions to open-source or experience in industrial data/AI platforms is an added advantage.

What we offer:

  • Opportunity to build world-class Industrial DataOps systems powering global energy, manufacturing, and industrial AI customers.
  • A fast-growing, high-ownership environment in Cognite’s India R&D Center.
  • Work on cutting-edge distributed systems, streaming architectures, AI-ready data platforms, and industrial-scale challenges.
  • A culture that rewards innovation, autonomy, continuous learning, and open-source contribution.
  • Competitive compensation, equity, and benefits aligned with Cognite’s global standards.
