Hire Dedicated Apache Kafka Engineers — India, US, UK & Australia

Hire pre-vetted Apache Kafka engineers who build real-time event-streaming backbones that move data reliably between your systems. Golonex places dedicated India-based Kafka engineers with US, UK, Australian, and Indian teams — working in your timezone, under NDA, integrated within one week and with no lock-in.

The role

What a Apache Kafka Engineer does

An Apache Kafka engineer designs event-driven architectures: topics and partitioning, producers and consumers, stream processing, and connectors to databases and services. Our engineers build with Kafka Streams and Kafka Connect, manage schema evolution with the Schema Registry, and handle throughput, ordering, and exactly-once delivery for mission-critical pipelines.

FAQ

Hiring a Apache Kafka Engineer — FAQs

How quickly can I hire an Apache Kafka engineer through Golonex? +

Usually within one week. We shortlist pre-vetted Kafka engineers matched to your setup — Confluent, MSK, or self-managed — you interview them, and the selected engineer is onboarded within 5 business days.

Do your Kafka engineers work in my timezone? +

Yes. Our engineers are India-based but work overlapping hours with US, UK, and Australian teams. The overlap window is agreed up front so design reviews and incident support happen in real time.

Can they design an event-driven architecture from scratch? +

Yes. Our engineers plan topic design, partitioning, schema strategy, and delivery guarantees for greenfield event-driven systems, then implement producers, consumers, and stream processors. They balance throughput, ordering, and reliability against your real requirements.

Do they handle Kafka Connect and change data capture? +

Yes. Building CDC pipelines with Debezium and Kafka Connect to stream database changes into Kafka is a common engagement. Our engineers configure connectors, manage schema evolution, and ensure reliable, ordered delivery downstream.

How do you vet Apache Kafka engineers? +

Every candidate passes a technical assessment on real streaming and event-architecture scenarios plus an architecture review, a communication assessment, and reference checks from at least two prior engagements. Our technical pass rate is under 30 percent.
