Vice President - Lme Data Platform

**Location:** CN-Shenzhen-HyQ **Shift:** Standard - 40 Hours (China) **Scheduled Weekly Hours:** 40 **Worker Type:** Permanent **Job Summary:** Lead the architecture, design, and technical strategy for the company's open-source data platform. Make the end-to-end technical vision — from ingestion to analytics — while mentoring a team of data platform engineers. This is a hands-on leadership role responsible for design the blueprints and write critical-path code. **Job Duties:** Responsibilities ---------------- ### Architecture & Strategy * Define the overall data platform architecture on OpenShift, covering the full lifecycle: ingestion (Kafka/Redpanda), compute (Spark, Flink, Trino), storage (MinIO, Iceberg), catalog (Polaris/Gravitino), orchestration (Airflow/Dagster), and serving (StarRocks/ClickHouse) * Design the Data Lakehouse architecture: open table formats (Iceberg, Delta Lake), catalog federation, multi-engine interoperability * Architect the real-time data path: Kafka topic design, schema registry (Apicurio/Confluent), stream processing (Flink/Spark Structured Streaming) * Design the analytical serving layer: OLAP engine selection (StarRocks/ClickHouse/Doris), materialized view strategy, query federation with Trino * Design multi-tenancy, data security (Ranger/OpenPolicyAgent), RBAC, and governance (DataHub/Atlas) across all platform layers * Set technical standards for Helm chart design, CI/CD pipelines, and GitOps (ArgoCD/Flux) workflows * Own data lifecycle management: hot/warm/cold tiering across MinIO, compaction, retention, and GDPR/deletion compliance ### Technical Leadership * Lead a team of 3–6 data platform engineers; run code reviews, design reviews, and sprint planning * Establish engineering best practices: testing, observability (OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, Loki), incident response, runbooks * Partner with data engineering, analytics, and business teams to translate their needs into platform capabilities * Define platform SLOs/SLIs across freshness, latency, availability, and durability; drive the on-call rotation and incident post-mortems ### Hands-on Engineering * Build and maintain the core OpenShift infrastructure: operators, Helm charts, namespaces, RBAC, network policies * Develop Spark and Flink job frameworks, tuning guides, workload scheduling (YuniKorn/Volcano) * Implement the data mesh or data product model: domain ownership, self-serve data infrastructure, federated governance * Performance-optimize across the stack: Kafka throughput, Spark shuffle, Iceberg compaction, Trino query planning, OLAP cold reads Required Skills & Experience ---------------------------- * 10 + years in data/platform engineering, with 3+ years as architect or tech lead * Deep Kubernetes/OpenShift: operators, Helm, CRDs, admission webhooks, SCC, multi-tenancy at production scale * Expert-level streaming: Kafka/Redpanda internals (partitioning, consumer groups, exactly-once semantics), schema registry, Kafka Connect * Expert-level batch & streaming compute: Spark internals (Catalyst, Tungsten, AQE, shuffle, dynamic allocation), Flink or Spark Structured Streaming * Strong open table format knowledge: Iceberg and/or Delta Lake — table format internals, metadata evolution, partitioning transforms, maintenance, catalog integration (Polaris, Gravitino, Nessie, or Unity Catalog) * Hands-on with federated query engines: Trino (coordinator/worker architecture, connector ecosystem, fault-tolerant execution mode) * Solid OLAP knowledge: StarRocks, ClickHouse, or Apache Doris — primary key models, materialized views, query optimization * Production MinIO/S3-compatible storage at scale: erasure coding, multi-site replication, IAM, tiering * Pipeline orchestration: Airflow (DAG design, sensors, dynamic task mapping) or Dagster * Infrastructure-as-code (Terraform/Pulumi/Crossplane) and GitOps (ArgoCD/Flux) * Fluent in at least one JVM language (Scala/Java) and Python Nice to Have ------------ * Experience deploying dbt (data build tool) with Trino or Spark adapters for data transformation * Data governance hands-on: DataHub or Apache Atlas for lineage, glossary, and metadata search * Data security: Apache Ranger or OpenPolicyAgent for fine-grained access control * Open-source contributions to any of the above projects **Company Introduction:** ITD SZ 港交所科技（深圳）有限公司，是2016年12月28日于深圳市前海自贸区成立的外商独资企业。 作为港交所的技术子公司，港交所科技（深圳）有限公司主要是为集团及其附属公司提供计算机软件、计算机硬件、信息系统、云存储、云计算、物联网和计算机网络的开发、技术服务、技术咨询、技术转让；经济信息咨询、企业管理咨询、商务信息咨询、商业信息咨询、信息系统设计、集成、运行维护；数据库管理、大数据分析；以承接服务外包方式提供系统应用管理和维护、信息技术支持管理、数据处理等信息技术和业务流程外包服务。
