Role Overview: Senior AI Data Engineer

In just six months, Kavak built a Databricks-based data platform with a data mesh architecture that surpassed even Databricks' own expectations. This platform serves as the intelligence backbone for the entire organization, supporting bots, human agents, and teams in Mexico, Turkey, and the Middle East. It is central to Kavak's AI strategy.

Kavak is looking for a Senior AI Data Engineer to help take this platform to the next level. The role calls for a technical expert with a strong product mindset, someone who understands the business context, builds the datasets that drive it, and becomes a key resource for data architecture across the company.

This position is not about processing tickets. Kavak seeks someone eager to understand the business, identify challenges, and design data solutions that make a real difference.
