What's Exciting About the Role Verifone is seeking a Data Engineer (Kafka) to join our Platform Engineering team. This is an operations-first role with a strong emphasis on scripting, automation, and pipeline development. You'll be hands on with day to day Kafka operations, reliability, tuning, and high availability for payment gateway solutions that process billions of transactions annually on prem and in AWS Cloud. Beyond keeping the lights on, you'll play a key role in building the data pipelines-of which Kafka is a core component-that power Verifone's new AI, machine learning, and analytics initiatives. You'll also be part of an active effort to migrate Kafka and related services to Kubernetes, giving you hands on experience with a meaningful infrastructure modernization project. The technology footprint is broad: Redis, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Snowflake, and more-so you'll grow well beyond a single technology niche. This hybrid role is open to hiring candidates located in: Bucharest, Romania Ashford, United Kingdom Riga, Lativa Warsaw, Poland Key Responsibilities Kafka Operations & Reliability Manage and support Apache Kafka clusters (including MSK), Kafka Connect ecosystem, and KSQL for high throughput, fault tolerant messaging and event streaming pipelines.

Design, implement, and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines for patching automation. Build and maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using tools such as Terraform, Ansible, or similar. Containerize and orchestrate workloads using Docker and Kubernetes, with the opportunity to help migrate Kafka and related services to Kubernetes. Data Pipeline Development Build and optimize end to end data pipelines, with Kafka as a core streaming component alongside batch and ETL processes, enabling new AI, ML, and analytics use cases. Collaborate with development teams to implement best practices for data flow, security, scalability, and performance. Continuously identify and implement improvements to the software development lifecycle (SDLC). Cloud & Infrastructure Manage cloud infrastructure on AWS (VMs, networking, storage, IAM, etc.).

Flexible with regards to working shifts; on call and weekends. Preferred Skills (Highly Desired) Data Engineering & Pipelines Data engineering skills including data analytics, data processing, ETL, and data lake technologies (batch and streaming, file formats like Parquet, table formats like Iceberg/Delta/Hudi, basic orchestration). Experience with AWS data tools (Athena, Glue, Iceberg, Redshift, etc.). Exposure to Kafka Streams, Apache Flink, or similar stream processing frameworks. Database & Caching Technologies Operate Redis deployments for caching, ephemeral state, queues/streams, and rate limiting use cases.
