[Hiring] Senior Software Engineer @Iomete

Role Description

We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Senior Software Engineer to join our team. We tackle a variety of exciting challenges, from building microservices to developing database engines. This role requires expertise in our primary tech stack, which includes Kotlin, Java/Scala, Python, and Go.

• Build the core infrastructure that powers IOMETE – Kotlin, Python, Golang services that have to work at massive scale, in hybrid environments, with zero room for "good enough".
• Get deep into Kubernetes – not just using it, but extending it. CRDs, webhooks, control-plane components that make on-site Spark workloads actually reliable.
• Work directly with enterprise engineering teams. Not through tickets. Not through PMs. Directly. Understand their problems, debug their issues, guide their integrations.
• Shape the architecture of distributed compute, query planning, data storage – but always with one question: Does this solve the customer's actual problem?

Qualifications

• 5-7+ years building and operating systems end-to-end. (Got less experience but can show us you've built something real that scaled? We'll talk.)
• You've built production data workflows. Real ones. ETL pipelines that don't fall over when they hit messy data. Systems that handle failure gracefully.
• You know modern data platforms – Snowflake, Databricks, whatever. But more importantly, you know where they fail enterprises.
• Fluent in at least two languages (Kotlin, Java, Golang, Python, Rust). But you pick tools based on the problem, not your resume.
• You can translate between "my Spark job is slow" and the actual architectural issue. You speak human and system.
• You make architecture decisions thinking about next year, not next sprint. But you ship this sprint.
• Your English is clear, your docs are readable, and you can explain complex problems without hiding behind jargon.
• You take ownership. Not "that's not my component" ownership. Real ownership.

Requirements

• Someone who's tired of building features that look good in demos but fail in production. Who wants to work on problems that matter.

Benefits

• Work on technology that's actually changing how enterprises handle data. Not incrementally. Fundamentally.
• Shape a young engineering org's architecture, culture, and future. Your decisions will matter for years.
• Solve problems alongside teams at the world's largest companies. Real scale. Real complexity. Real impact.
• Competitive compensation and meaningful equity. We're building something big.
• Full-time contract role. No bureaucracy. Just impact.

Compensation

$60k - $100k annually, depending on what you bring to the table.
