• Continuously evolve platform architecture, infrastructure, and AWS account foundations to support long-term scale, cost efficiency, security, and reliability.

• Lead the design and implementation of core data processing systems using technologies such as AWS Glue, Spark, S3, Iceberg, Databricks, and Redshift.

• Set a high bar for code quality, maintainability, and operational excellence, acting as a role model for best practices in the domain.

• Drive architectural decisions with a holistic view of Klarna's data landscape, downstream consumers, and cross-team dependencies.

• Design and evolve IAM models, roles, and access patterns to enable secure and scalable use of data platforms across teams and accounts.

Who you are

• Strong experience building analytical data platforms on AWS, including Spark-based processing and S3-backed data lakes.

• Solid hands-on skills with Python, distributed data processing, and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform).

• Experience working with modern table formats (e.g. Iceberg) and data warehouses (e.g. Redshift).

• Experience designing and operating IAM and AWS account setups for data platforms, balancing security with developer usability.

• A product-oriented mindset, focused on building durable, scalable solutions rather than one-off pipelines.

• Experience operating systems in production and improving them through monitoring, incident learnings, and iteration.
