At iyzico, the Data Platform team builds the backbone behind analytics, reporting, and AI across one of Türkiye’s largest payment platforms. You’ll work on a large-scale distributed data warehouse and real-time CDC pipelines - at genuine scale, in a regulated environment. A growing part of this work is our governed, in-house LLM platform - used to turn natural language into trustworthy analytics, automate data workflows, and build data products that engineers and analysts can rely on. This is a role for engineers who want to own data problems end to end, from raw event to production.

Write and optimize SQL against a large-scale distributed PostgreSQL warehouse
Design and evolve data models and ETL/ELT processes
Develop and maintain orchestration with Apache Airflow

Own data quality, governance, and observability - the checks, monitoring, and alerting you actually trust
Investigate pipeline and data issues to root cause, and ship durable fixes
Help run the data platform itself: install, configure, and troubleshoot its components
Build on our in-house LLM platform: retrieval-augmented data pipelines, natural-language-to-SQL over the warehouse, and analytics automation - with correctness and governance built in
What we’re looking for
2-3 years of experience
Strong SQL and query optimization
Solid grasp of relational databases and data modeling
Hands-on Python for data processing and automation
Working knowledge of ETL/ELT and pipeline design
Comfort in a Linux/CLI environment
Git, code review, and testing as part of your normal workflow
A problem-solver who can dig into unfamiliar systems independently
Ownership: you take a problem from investigation all the way to production
