Job Opportunity: Developer with Expertise in Functional Programming

We are seeking a highly skilled developer with a strong background in functional programming and distributed data processing. This role involves designing, implementing, and optimizing scalable systems that leverage functional paradigms, concurrent processing, and modern runtime architectures.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain high-performance, reliable, and distributed applications using functional programming principles.
• Work with Spark in DataBricks, ensuring resilience and elasticity in large-scale deployments.
• Build and optimize data-intensive workflows using Apache Spark or comparable frameworks.
• Apply solid knowledge of runtime environments, execution contexts, and pure functional design to deliver predictable, testable software.
• Collaborate with teams to design architectural solutions based on a sound understanding of distributed and parallel data transformation.
• Write efficient, maintainable code in Python.

Must-Have Qualifications

• Strong hands-on experience in functional programming using one or more paradigms:
• ETL pipelines,
• Actor model systems (Akka, Apache Pekko),
• Category theory-based systems, or
• Map-reduce frameworks.
• Real-world experience with Apache Spark (most important) or similar libraries and technologies (Apache Flink, Cats/Cats Effect, Hadoop, Kafka Streams).
• Solid understanding of runtime systems, execution contexts, and pure functions.
• Deep understanding of compiled, JIT, and interpreted execution models.
• Proficiency in Python and one of Scala/Java, C/C++, or Rust.

Nice to Have

• Experience applying functional programming principles in Python.
• Experience designing and maintaining ETL pipelines.
• Familiarity with Databricks, Delta Live Tables (DLT), or Delta Sharing.
• Exposure to Power BI or other BI tools.
• Understanding of projective programming concepts and graph query models.
• Background working in Linux and Azure environments.
• Additional experience with Scala, TypeScript, C++, Rust, Haskell, or SQL.
