We are looking for insight-driven Data Engineers, not pure ETL builders, to help build and scale the data pipelines and core analytical datasets that power analytics, AI model evaluation, safety systems, and business decision-making across Bharat AI’s agentic AI platform.
This role sits at the heart of how data flows through the organization — from raw events to insights, feedback loops, and decisions. You will work closely with Product, Data Science, Infrastructure, Marketing, Finance, and AI/Research teams to ensure data is reliable, interpretable, and outcome-oriented as the platform scales rapidly.
At Proximity, you won’t just move data — your work will directly influence how AI systems learn, adapt, and improve, and how leaders make product and business decisions.
Responsibilities- Design, build, and manage scalable data pipelines, ensuring high-fidelity user event and system data is reliably ingested into the data warehouse and streaming systems.
- Develop and maintain canonical, analytics-ready datasets to track key product and business metrics such as:
- user growth
- engagement & retention
- cohorts & behavioral patterns
- revenue & conversion funnels
- Think beyond pipelines — structure data to enable insights, experimentation, and feedback loops that improve both models and product decisions.
- Collaborate with Infrastructure, Data Science, Product, Marketing, Finance, and Research teams to translate business questions into well-modeled, trustworthy datasets.
- Implement robust, fault-tolerant systems for batch and streaming ingestion, transformation, and processing.
- Participate actively in data architecture decisions, balancing scalability, cost, latency, and analytical flexibility.
- Ensure data security, integrity, and compliance in line with company policies and industry standards.
- Monitor pipeline and streaming job health, troubleshoot failures, and continuously improve reliability, performance, and data quality.
- Thinks in architecture, feedback loops, and outcomes, not pipelines alone.
- Can structure data models that improve:
- AI model evaluation
- decision-making
- experimentation and learning velocity
Communicates in terms of impact and insights, not only jobs and tables.
Requirements
- 3–5 years of professional experience working as a Data Engineer or in a similar role.
- Strong proficiency in Python for data processing and orchestration.
- Solid hands-on experience with Apache Spark, including writing, debugging, and optimizing Spark jobs.
- Experience with distributed data processing and storage systems.
- Strong understanding of data pipeline design for analytics, reporting, and ML workflows.
- Experience working closely with cross-functional teams with diverse data needs.
- Experience designing and maintaining data pipelines for analytics, reporting, or ML use cases.
- Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work across teams with varied data requirements.
- Hands-on experience working with Databricks in production environments.
- Familiarity with the GCP data stack, including Pub/Sub, Dataflow, BigQuery, and Google Cloud Storage (GCS).
- Exposure to data quality frameworks, data validation, or schema management tools.
- Understanding of analytics use cases, experimentation, or ML data workflows.
- Strong Plus - GCP Dataflow, BigQuery, Google Analytics / Data Analytics tooling
- Experience designing datasets for experimentation or ML feedback loops
- Exposure to data quality, validation, or schema management frameworks
