Senior Software Engineer

Akamai Technologies, Inc. • Indianapolis, IN • 2h ago

Are you excited to work with innovative security products?

Do you relish the prospect of working with cutting-edge network security systems?

Join our Data Intelligene Team!

Our data intelligence team builds the data platform that meters and bills Akamai Cloud compute. We turn raw usage from compute instances, GPUs, storage, networking and AI inference into accurate/auditable billing data that customers/finance teams trust.

Partner with the best

You will join the Netstats Engineering team, which runs the large-scale usage and billing pipelines behind Akamai's products. In this hands-on engineering role, you will design pipelines, write production code, and own the correctness of data, directly driving revenue.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will be responsible for:

Designing, building and operating batch and streaming pipelines that ingest usage events from Akamai Cloud compute services at high volume

Building metering/rating logic:aggregate raw usage into billable units(instance hours, GPU hours, data transfer, storage, inference tokens) and apply rate cards/contract terms

Developing/maintaining a data lakehouse (open table formats on object storage) as the source of truth for usage and billing data

Orchestrating workflows with Apache Airflow, including backfills, late-arriving data, retries and SLA monitoring

Writing production-grade Python and Spark or Flink jobs, packaged and deployed with Docker

Building reconciliation/data-quality checks so every billed unit traces back to its source usage, with audit trails finance can rely on

Writing clean, tested, well-documented code; review others' work and raise the team's engineering standards

Do what you love

To be successful in this role you will:

Have 6+ years of software/data engineering experience, with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field (or equivalent experience)

Demonstrate great programming skills in Python; ideally experience in Java or Scala

Have hands-on experience building large-scale pipelines with a modern data framework such as Apache Spark or Apache Flink

Have production experience orchestrating pipelines with Apache Airflow

Possess deep SQL experience: complex joins, window functions, query tuning, and data modeling for analytics

Have experience building or running a data lakehouse (e.g., Delta Lake, Apache Iceberg or Apache Hudi on object storage)

Have experience with at least one public cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure )
