Job Description:

Cloud Data Technologies (CDT) team at eBay is responsible for all the data platform, infrastructure and management of end-to-end data lifecycle for all eBay data from eBay products to analytics use cases. We are seeking a Software Engineer passionate about data-driven technologies and architectures.

About the Role

We are looking for MTS 2 Software Engineers to join the Golden Data Sets (GDS) Platform team within eBay's Core Data Platform organization.

The problem we're solving is significant: eBay currently manages over ten thousands of  loosely defined datasets with fragmented pipeline implementations, resulting in widespread data duplication, redundant compute, and runaway operational costs. The GDS Platform addresses this by building a fully declarative data platform — one that accepts dataset specifications, maintains a comprehensive view of the total data flow graph, and automatically produces optimized pipelines to systematically eliminate these inefficiencies at scale.

As an engineer on this team, you will contribute to the systems that power this platform — from computation graph management to pipeline optimization and dataset lifecycle. Your work will directly reduce operational waste across eBay's data infrastructure.

Note: This is a Data Platform Engineering role. Familiarity with Spark, Flink, and the Hadoop ecosystem is useful context, but your primary responsibility is building the platform itself — not authoring pipelines.
