We proudly offer a video platform, cloud services, advertising solutions, and a non-custodial cryptocurrency wallet.\nRumble is seeking a Senior Data Engineer to design, build, and operate the data platforms and backend systems that support large-scale product, analytics, and operational workloads. This is a senior individual contributor role for someone who can own systems end to end: you'll architect them, implement them, help deploy and monitor them in production, and continuously improve performance, reliability, and maintainability as scale and complexity grow.\nOur environment centers on large-scale data processing, distributed systems, and backend services that need to perform reliably in production. You should be comfortable working with open data lake formats such as Parquet, data lake catalogs such as Hive, Iceberg, or DuckLake, distributed query and storage systems such as Trino, Doris, Spark, StarRocks, or ClickHouse, and relational databases including MySQL and PostgreSQL. You should also be able to design and implement production APIs at scale, ideally in the JVM ecosystem using Kotlin with Ktor or Quarkus, and work confidently with Redis, event-driven systems, and containerized infrastructure.\nYou'll work closely with engineering and product teams to turn ambiguous requirements into clear technical plans, apply strong systems design fundamentals to complex data and backend problems, and make sound implementation decisions across application, data, and infrastructure layers. Day to day, you may design high-performance data pipelines, improve data access patterns across operational and analytical systems, build services that expose and process data reliably, and help raise the engineering bar through strong execution, thoughtful collaboration, and hands-on technical leadership.\nResponsibilities\nDesign, build, and operate modern data infrastructure and backend services that support large-scale data processing and product needs. Own systems from architecture through implementation, testing, deployment, monitoring, and ongoing optimization. Develop and improve data pipelines and data lake patterns using open formats and catalog technologies, build APIs and services that expose data reliably at scale, and help ensure performance, resilience, and maintainability across distributed systems. Collaborate with cross-functional partners to solve complex technical problems and raise engineering standards through strong judgment and high-quality execution.\nQualifications\nStrong experience building and operating large-scale data platforms, backend systems, or roles that meaningfully combine both disciplines.\nStrong knowledge of modern data engineering patterns, including data lake style processing with open formats such as Parquet; experience with formats such as Vortex or Lance is a plus.\nHands-on experience with data lake catalogs and table metadata systems such as Hive, Iceberg, or DuckLake.\nStrong experience with distributed databases, storage engines, or query systems such as Trino, Doris, Spark, StarRocks, or ClickHouse.\nAdvanced SQL skills across modern dialects, along with practical experience using relational databases such as MySQL and PostgreSQL.\nStrong backend engineering experience building APIs and services at scale, preferably in the JVM ecosystem using Kotlin with Ktor or Quarkus, or comparable backend technologies.\nExperience with distributed caching systems such as Redis and with queue or event-driven architectures using Kafka, NATS, RabbitMQ, or similar technologies.\nComfort working in containerized and orchestrated environments, including Kubernetes, and debugging issues across data, application, and infrastructure layers.\nPreferred Qualifications\nExperience with modern data processing engines such as Polars or DataFusion.\nExperience contributing to the design and improvement of high-scale, distributed systems.\nExperience working directly in Linux-based production environments and operating services in collaboration with platform or infrastructure teams.\nExperience contributing to, maintaining, or working closely with open-source technologies.\nBackground in media, streaming, large-scale consumer platforms, or data-intensive product environments.\nAnnual Compensation Range:\n$149,000 - $170,000 USD base + benefits + equity (If based in the United States)\n$135,000 - $159,000 CAD base + benefits + equity (If based in Canada)\nNote: The salary range listed for this position is a good faith estimate based on experience, qualifications, and internal compensation structure. The actual salary offered varies depending on the candidate's skill level and experience. This posting refers to an active vacancy within the organization.\nWhy Our Team Loves Working Here:\nWe are making a significant financial impact for our video creator community; we're proud of their success stories\nWe enjoy challenging the status quo and going head-to-head against Big Tech\nWe aren't afraid to try new things; we act fast and want to win\nWe pay competitive salaries and provide great benefits\nEEO Statement:\nRumble is an equal opportunity employer. We promote an equal playing field where everyone has the same opportunities regardless of race, religion, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, veteran status, disability status, or any other applicable characteristics protected by law. Rumble is an active participant in the e-verify program.\nPhysical demands of the position:\nWhile performing the duties of this job, the employee is regularly required to sit for prolonged periods of time while using a computer and/or keyboard. The employee is required to communicate verbally and hear. The employee may be required to walk, reach with hands and arms, balance, and stoop or kneel. The employee may occasionally be required to lift and/or move up to 15 pounds. Specific vision abilities required by this job include clarity of vision at approximately 20 inches or less (i.e., working with small objects or reading small print), including the use of computers.","company":"Rumble","rawCompany":"rumble","city":"Sarasota","state":"FL","isRemote":false,"isActive":false,"createdAt":"2026-08-04T19:50:13.495Z","occupations":[{"code":"15-1243.01","title":"Data Warehousing Specialists","slug":"data-warehousing-specialists"},{"code":"15-1243.00","title":"Database Architects","slug":"database-architects"},{"code":"15-1299.08","title":"Computer Systems Engineers/Architects","slug":"computer-systems-engineers-architects"}],"industries":[{"code":"513210","title":"Software Publishers","slug":"software-publishers"},{"code":"541512","title":"Computer Systems Design Services","slug":"computer-systems-design-services"},{"code":"541511","title":"Custom Computer Programming Services","slug":"custom-computer-programming-services"}],"jobPosting":{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"JobPosting","title":"Senior Data Engineer","description":"Rumble is the Freedom-First technology platform.
