Full-time Associate Big Data Engineer role, on-site at Bandra Kurla Complex, Mumbai. Pay runs up to ₹91,000 a month.
The job
Raw data doesn't turn itself into something a business team can act on. That's the work here: building and maintaining the pipelines that move data through the system, then shaping it into something clean enough for a dashboard or a report someone actually relies on. This is an associate-level opening, so 15 months of relevant hands-on experience gets you in the door.
- Build and maintain data pipelines that pull raw data into a usable, structured form
- Develop dashboards that give business stakeholders a clear read on what's happening
- Keep existing reporting workflows running reliably as data volumes and requirements shift
- Optimize queries so reports load fast, even as the underlying datasets grow
Query optimization sounds like a background task until a dashboard that used to load in seconds starts taking a full minute because the underlying dataset tripled in size. Fixing that kind of drift, before a stakeholder notices and complains, is a real and recurring part of the job.
What gets you considered
A bachelor's degree is required, with computer science or IT being the most natural fit, though the team looks closely at actual skill level over the exact degree title. On the technical side, solid SQL is non-negotiable, and real experience building data pipelines matters more than any single certification. Working knowledge of BI or reporting tools rounds things out, since the output of this role ultimately has to reach people outside the data team.
Core technical skills
- Hadoop
- Apache Spark
- SQL
- Python or Scala
- Building and maintaining data pipelines
What would make an application stronger
Experience with a cloud data platform like AWS EMR or Databricks is increasingly common on the teams hiring for this kind of role in Mumbai, and workflow orchestration tools such as Airflow help a lot once pipelines get complex enough to need scheduling and monitoring. Familiarity with a data warehouse like Redshift or Snowflake is a solid plus, and basic Git usage keeps collaborative pipeline work from turning into a mess.
Pay and setting
Compensation for this big data engineer role in Mumbai runs up to ₹91,000 a month, on-site at Bandra Kurla Complex, one of the city's major commercial districts. Naukri Mitra frequently features BKC-based openings given how many finance and tech employers cluster in the area. There's no remote arrangement here, so plan on being in the office regularly.
What's included
- Health insurance
- Paid time off
- Provident fund contributions
- On-site cafeteria access
- Cab or commute support
Commute support matters more than it might seem given BKC's peak-hour traffic, and it's worth weighing against a longer trip from further out in the city.
Apply
Send your resume with any pipeline or dashboard work you can point to, ideally something built with Hadoop or Spark rather than just SQL scripts. Shortlisted candidates should expect a technical round focused on a real data transformation problem, not a whiteboard puzzle disconnected from the job itself.
