What is a Data Engineer at Kharon?
At Kharon, data is not just an asset—it is the core of our product. Kharon operates at the crucial intersection of global security threats, international commerce, and financial risk. We take highly complex, multi-layered data related to sanctions, export controls, and financial crimes, and transform it into actionable intelligence. As a Data Engineer or Senior Data Engineer, you will be responsible for building the robust, automated data processing systems and data lakes that power this mission-critical intelligence platform.
In this role, you will design and implement scalable ETL pipelines that ingest, transform, and deliver both structured and unstructured data. Operating primarily within the AWS and Databricks ecosystems, you will optimize our storage and computational efficiency, ensuring our data systems are performant and resilient. Your work directly impacts our ability to connect the dots on global security threats, enabling multinational financial institutions and global enterprises to make highly informed, real-time risk decisions.
This position is ideal for an experienced engineer who thrives on solving foundational data challenges. You will collaborate closely with data scientists, architects, and product teams to translate complex geopolitical and financial risk use cases into scalable software solutions. If you are passionate about building high-precision systems that tackle real-world global crises, this role offers an unparalleled opportunity for technical ownership and strategic influence.
