The Role

At Medallia, we help the world’s leading organizations capture experience signals and transform them into real-time intelligence and action. As AI-native systems evolve, traditional transactional architectures are no longer enough. The future belongs to platforms that can continuously sense, interpret, and react to live operational and behavioral signals in real time.

We are building the next generation of intelligent, event-driven platforms and are looking for a Principal Data & Event Intelligence Engineer to architect the real-time nervous system powering AI-driven decisioning, automation, and personalization across Medallia.

 

Mission

Transform the enterprise from static CRUD and transactional systems into a real-time intelligence platform. This role is responsible for building the foundational event and streaming infrastructure that powers operational AI, behavioral intelligence, autonomous workflows, and adaptive customer experiences. You will design the systems that continuously ingest, process, enrich, and activate enterprise signals at scale — enabling AI systems and products to operate with real-time awareness and responsiveness.

Responsibilities

Event-Driven Platform Architecture

• Architect and scale enterprise-wide event-driven systems powering real-time intelligence and AI workflows
• Design highly resilient streaming architectures supporting billions of events and low-latency processing
• Build foundational event ingestion, routing, enrichment, and distribution frameworks
• Define event contracts, schemas, governance standards, and interoperability patterns across platforms
• Drive the transition from request/response transactional systems toward reactive, event-native architectures

Real-Time Signal & Behavioral Intelligence

• Build real-time customer, employee, product, and operational signal pipelines
• Develop behavioral intelligence systems that continuously analyze activity streams and contextual signals
• Create streaming analytics capabilities enabling dynamic decisioning, anomaly detection, and adaptive workflows
• Build operational AI feedback loops that continuously improve AI systems using live interaction data
• Enable AI systems to react to changing enterprise state with minimal latency

Data Infrastructure & Temporal Systems

• Design feature stores, event stores, and temporal data architectures optimized for AI and machine learning workloads
• Build systems supporting time-aware reasoning, sequence analysis, sessionization, and historical replay
• Implement cross-platform telemetry normalization and unified signal modeling
• Develop scalable infrastructure for high-throughput event storage, retention, replay, and observability
• Optimize data freshness, consistency, throughput, and processing efficiency at scale

Personalization & Agent Activation

• Build real-time personalization infrastructure powering adaptive user experiences and intelligent workflows
• Design agent-trigger systems enabling autonomous AI actions based on live signals and behavioral conditions
• Create context propagation and streaming enrichment systems supporting AI orchestration frameworks
• Partner with AI platform teams to integrate event intelligence into agentic and autonomous systems

Technical Leadership & Platform Strategy

• Establish architectural standards and best practices for streaming and event-driven engineering
• Drive platform modernization initiatives across data, infrastructure, and AI ecosystems
• Mentor engineers and influence technical direction across multiple teams and organizations
• Partner with Product, Infrastructure, AI, and Security teams to operationalize real-time intelligence capabilities
• Evaluate emerging technologies in streaming systems, event processing, and operational AI infrastructure, and AI grounding

 

Candidates based in the Buenos Aires vicinity will be prioritized as this role is Hybrid, 3 days per week onsite.

Qualifications

Minimum Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience building large-scale distributed systems, streaming platforms, or real-time data infrastructure with expertise in event-driven architectures and distributed streaming systems
