Job description

MoMo is the leading mobile payments provider in Vietnam, committed to improving the lives of every Vietnamese through technological innovation. As our business continues to expand, we're looking for an experienced Data Engineer to join our Data Platform team.

At MoMo, we emphasize smart, efficient, and excellent execution, with a strong focus on data quality. Our data platform delivers critical insights for:

• Business and app performance monitoring
• Machine learning products including recommendation systems, personalization, risk scoring, fraud detection, targeted promotions, and financial services

We're also building a next-generation hybrid data platform across multiple cloud providers, giving us greater control over both cost and technology

With MoMo's AI-first mission, we are designing and building a self-serve data platform to empower both internal teams and external partners. This platform allocates resources based on users’ needs to support:

• Ingesting data from diverse sources — either in batch or streaming, using both pull and push mechanisms
• Developing and deploying resilient data pipelines across the data lake, data warehouse, and streaming systems
• Delivering high-quality, derived datasets to downstream tools such as BI solutions (e.g., Apache Superset, Google Data Studio), via multiple delivery methods including APIs, datasets, and streaming data
• Monitoring data quality throughout all data pipelines in the platform to ensure high-quality data, resulting in better decision-making, accurate reporting, and reliable machine learning outputs
• Tracking and optimising resource usage for efficiency

Additionally, we are building Data Management Systems that enable the Data Governance team and data consumers to:

• Manage the full data lifecycle within the big data platform
• Explore the MoMo data ecosystem independently
• Provide a single source of truth with high data quality to downstream consumers
• Track and manage infrastructure costs across major projects, teams, and departments

Your skills and experience

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field
• A problem solver with a strong sense of ownership and accountability — not just a task executor
• 5+ years of experience working as a Data Engineer and 1+ year of experience working as leader
• Curious and committed to lifelong learning, with a passion for solving business problems through engineering, improving service quality and usability, and maintaining a strong customer focus
• Strong foundation in computer science fundamentals, including data structures, algorithms, database systems, and data modelling techniques
• Proficient in at least one of the following languages: SQL, Python, JVM-based languages
• Experience with databases such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, ClickHouse, DuckDB, etc
• Skilled in analysing, designing, implementing, and optimising Data Vault or Dimensional Modeling for performance and cost
• Hands-on experience with infrastructure platforms — cloud-based (e.g., GCP, AWS) or on-premise — and container orchestration using Kubernetes
• Experience with data storage and processing engines like Apache Spark, Apache Flink, and StarRocks
• Experience with Google Cloud Platform or Amazon Web Services is a plus.
