About Mobilisights

 

Mobilisights, a business unit of Stellantis, is building the future of connected vehicle data and real-time mobility intelligence.

 

With millions of connected cars and devices generating high-volume sensor data, we are creating a Data-as-a-Service (DaaS) platform that powers innovative applications for consumers, enterprises, and mobility ecosystems worldwide.

 

We operate with the scale of one of the world’s largest automotive groups—Stellantis (Jeep, Fiat, Maserati, Peugeot, and more)—and the mindset of a startup. That means rapid innovation, cloud-native engineering, and real-time data at massive scale.

 

We are building the foundation of a smarter world powered by streaming, real-time, cloud-based data platforms.

 

Role Overview – Data Engineer (Streaming / Cloud / Big Data)

 

We are looking for a Senior Data Engineer with strong experience building and operating large-scale, cloud-native, real-time data streaming systems.

 

In this role, you will design and build the core data infrastructure that powers Mobilisights’ data products—handling massive, real-time vehicle and IoT data streams with a focus on scalability, reliability, and low latency.

 

This is a hands-on engineering role focused on data platforms, streaming pipelines, AWS cloud architecture, and production-grade data systems.

 

Key Responsibilities

 

Data Platform & Architecture

· Design and build a scalable, cloud-native data platform capable of ingesting, storing, processing, and streaming massive real-time datasets

· Architect systems that support high-volume sensor data ingestion and near real-time processing

· Enable fast and reliable development of data products and analytics services

 

Streaming Data Engineering

  • Build and maintain real-time streaming data pipelines
  • Implement data processing workflows using modern streaming technologies such as:
  • Apache Kafka

  • AWS MSK (Managed Kafka)
  • Implement Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and automated deployment pipelines
  • Support secure, scalable, and production-ready cloud infrastructure

 

Data Reliability & Operations

  • Ensure data consistency, reliability, and fault tolerance across pipelines
  • Build and maintain:
  • Monitoring systems
  • Logging frameworks
  • Alerting and observability tools
  • Implement data quality checks and data loss detection mechanisms
  • Participate in on-call production support and incident troubleshooting

 

Engineering Excellence

  • Contribute to operational best practices including:
  • Restartability of pipelines
  • Error handling strategies
  • System resilience and recovery
  • Work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver production-grade data system

Qualifications
