Watch-outs

- The job expects experience with streaming data technologies like Kafka or Kinesis, which the candidate lacks evidence of.
- The role involves mentoring and ownership responsibilities that may exceed candidate's current scope.
- The job is hybrid with 2 days a week onsite in Shoreditch; candidate's work mode preference is defaulted and may not fully confirm hybrid suitability.
