FYST • Spain, Spain • Posted June 11, 2026

About the Role

We're looking for the right person to build that foundation from the ground up.


This is a hands-on leadership role with real ownership: you'll shape how data is collected, structured, and delivered — and grow a team around you as the function matures.

  •   WHAT YOU'LL BE WORKING ON Design the target-state data architecture: Postgres CDC → Kafka → Snowflake → client-facing data products.


    Own tooling decisions across ingestion, orchestration, transformation, and quality layers.


    Implement CDC-based ingestion from PostgreSQL services (RDS, Aurora, EC2, K8s operator) using Debezium or equivalent.


    Build streaming and near-real-time pipelines with defined SLAs.


    Build a data quality control layer: checksums, reconciliation, schema validation, anomaly detection, and alerting.


    Define quality checkpoints across the full pipeline — from source capture through Snowflake to client delivery.
