Description

We are seeking an Event-Driven System Engineer to join a global organization based in Geneva. This role is focused on building and optimizing large-scale, real-time data streaming architectures. The selected candidate will play a key role in supporting event-driven systems, particularly those powering next-generation Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) AI applications.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and implement large-scale real-time data streaming pipelines using Apache Kafka, Flink, and Beam.
  • Develop and manage real-time data transformation and enrichment processes.
  • Integrate streaming pipelines with existing lakehouse architectures.
  • Collaborate closely with AI engineers and data scientists to support real-time inference and RAG pipelines.
  • Monitor, tune, and ensure performance, resilience, and low latency across the streaming architecture.
  • Apply observability and alerting best practices to maintain pipeline health and data integrity.

Minimum requirements

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in streaming data architectures or real-time data engineering.
  • Deep hands-on expertise in Apache Kafka, Apache Flink, and stream processing frameworks (e.g. Apache Beam).
  • Proficient in programming with Java, Python, or Scala.
  • Strong understanding of event-driven architecture patterns and design principles.
  • Experience with cloud-native streaming services (e.g. AWS Kinesis, Azure Event Hubs, GCP Pub/Sub).

Other Required Skills

  • Experience working in complex, multicultural, and global environments.
  • Familiarity with DevOps principles and agile delivery models.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving mindset.
  • Excellent English communication skills are mandatory; French or Spanish will be considered a valuable asset.
  • Proactive, self-motivated, and able to work independently in a dynamic environment.
  • Valid Swiss work permit or EU citizenship is mandatory.

What We Offer:

  • Permanent contract with a competitive annual gross salary, based on experience and qualifications.
  • On-site position in Geneva, with possibility of hybrid work depending on project needs.
  • 25 days of paid vacation per year.
  • Monthly public transportation allowance.
  • Monthly telecom allowance to support work-related connectivity.
  • Opportunity to contribute to high-impact real-time AI infrastructure for a global organization.
  • International, inclusive, and collaborative team environment.
