Senior Data Engineer (Platform & Architecture)

About the role

Senior Data Engineer (Platform & Architecture) Department: Technology Division I. ABOUT VINDYNAMICS: At VinDynamics, we design safe, affordable, and intelligent humanoid robots to assist in everyday life — robots for everyone. Backed by Vingroup, Vietnam’s leading technology conglomerate, we are building a global robotics company spanning R&D, manufacturing, and commercial services. II. ABOUT DATA PLATFORM DIVISION: Build a Data Platform from scratch to process terabytes of time-series and telemetry data from bigdata systems. Ultimate goal: Streamline data using AI and drive Data Monetization by selling APIs, Data Subscriptions, or Raw Data packages. You are a fit ONLY if you have these: • Proactive & Hungry to Learn: You don't wait for tasks. You heavily leverage AI (Cursor, Copilot, AI Agents) to 10x your productivity. • Low Ego: You are ready to scrap your hard-written code if it doesn't solve the business problem. You debate to find the truth, not to win the argument. • Resilience: You value long-term commitment, appreciate the knowledge gained, and stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the team to pivot during tough times. • Bias for Action: Focus on results. You prefer shipping an 80% perfect version to get market feedback over holding it for 2 months to make the code "beautiful". You aggressively break through blockers. III. REQUIREMENTS: • Proven experience in designing and building Big Data/Data Platforms from scratch in Production environments. • Deep knowledge of streaming ecosystems (Kafka, Spark Streaming, Flink) and Cloud platforms (AWS/GCP). • Architecture mindset: Deep understanding of technology trade-offs. • Huge Plus: Experience working closely with AI teams, building data pipelines for model training (Feature Stores), and handling Time-series/IoT data. IV. JOB DESCRIPTION: • Solution Architecture: Own the technical blueprint of the Data Platform. Select the right tech stack (Kafka, Flink, Data Lake/Lakehouse) balancing cost-optimization and scalability. • Large-Scale Systems: Build distributed pipelines to process high-throughput streaming and batch data. • Optimization & Monitoring: Build auto-recovery mechanisms, early alerting, and bottleneck resolution. • Data Contracts: Define strict data communication standards with Backend and AI teams to ensure output data is always pristine. V. BENEFITS: • Attractive income, competitive and commensurate with individual capabilities. • 13th-month salary, gifts on public holidays and special occasions, and performance-based bonuses. • Meal allowance, annual company trips, health insurance, and exclusive benefits within the Group’s ecosystem. • Clear career development opportunities aligned with the company’s growth, with access to training programs based on capability and job role. • A dynamic and open working environment with diverse cultural and sports activities.
