Our team includes alumni from IITs, IIMs, and top tech companies, and we move fast while having a LOT of fun! We work with brands like Amazon, Flipkart, Myntra, Nykaa, Ajio, H&M, and many more. At Wishlink, you get to work in a fast-emerging consumer-tech startup and play an integral part in building the creator-enabled eCommerce space.
What would you be doing?
• Watch Reels and YouTube videos every day & level up on your fashion sense! • This is a hands-on engineering role where you will actively build and write production code — not just manage or delegate. • Design, build, and maintain scalable batch and near real-time data pipelines. • Develop ETL/ELT pipelines using Python, SQL, and Spark/PySpark on Databricks. • Build Bronze, Silver, and Gold data models using a Lakehouse (Medallion) architecture. • Optimize Spark jobs for performance, scalability, and cost. • Work with structured and semi-structured datasets from multiple sources. • Develop reusable, production-ready data engineering frameworks. • Own data quality, monitoring, and pipeline reliability as measurable outcomes. • Collaborate closely with Product, Analytics, and Business teams. • Participate in code reviews and production support. • ž Navigate our current stack: Spark, Databricks, Delta Lake (Medallion architecture), BigQuery, Airbyte, and Power BI.
What are we looking for?
• If you are a content creator yourself or have worked closely in the social media space, we like you already :) • 3+ years of professional experience in Data Engineering, with a strong software engineering foundation. • Strong SQL skills (joins, CTEs, window functions, query optimization). • Hands-on Python programming skills. • Hands-on experience with Apache Spark / PySpark / Databricks. • Solid knowledge of data warehousing and data modeling. • Experience with ETL/ELT and incremental data processing. • Experience with the AWS or GCP cloud ecosystem. • Strong communication skills — you can translate between data engineering and business/analytics stakeholders.
