Job Title:Scala Engineer – Apache Spark & HPC

Job Description:

We are seeking an experienced Scala Engineer to focus on accelerating Apache Spark workloads and developing high-performance solutions. This role requires expertise in Scala, a deep understanding of the JVM & domain-specific languages (DSLs), and experience with compilers or HPC.

Key Responsibilities:

• Optimise and accelerate Apache Spark applications for complex, large-scale data processing tasks.
• Develop and enhance JVM-based solutions to ensure performance, scalability, and reliability.
• Design and implement domain-specific languages (DSLs) and contribute to compiler optimisation pipelines.
• Collaborate on integrating solutions with Apache engine components and distributed systems.
• Troubleshoot, profile, and resolve performance bottlenecks in big data and HPC environments.

Required Skills and Experience:

• Strong proficiency in Scala programming and a deep understanding of the JVM ecosystem.
• Hands-on experience with Apache Spark, particularly in performance optimization.
• Solid knowledge of compilers, domain-specific languages (DSLs), or high-performance computing (HPC).
• Proven experience in designing, developing, and optimising distributed systems.
• Strong analytical skills and a focus on delivering efficient, high-quality solutions.

Nice-to-Have:

• Experience with other distributed computing frameworks or big data technologies.
• Knowledge of cloud-based platforms and containerisation (e.g., Kubernetes, Docker).

This is an exciting opportunity for a skilled engineer to work on cutting-edge projects at the intersection of big data and high-performance computing.
