  • Design and develop applications to process large amounts of critical information in batch and near real-time to power user-facing features.
  • Influence technical direction for the company, leveraging your prior experiences and helping evaluate emerging technologies and approaches.
  • Help bring engineering maturity to a growing team that is at the center of a lot of critical initiatives for the company

You’ll thrive in this role if you have:

  • 5+ years of professional software development experience
  • Strong ability in distributed systems for processing large scale data processing
  • Ability to communicate technical information effectively to technical and non-technical audiences
  • Proficiency in SQL and Python
  • Experience leveraging open source data infrastructure projects, such as Apache Spark, Airflow, Kafka, Flink, Samza, Avro, Parquet, Hadoop, Hive, HBase, Phoenix, Presto or Druid
  • Experience building scalable data pipelines and real-time data streams
  • Experience building software in AWS or a similar cloud environment
  • Experience with AWS services like Kinesis, Firehose, Lambda, Sagemaker is a big plus
  • Experience with GCP services like BigQuery, Cloud Functions is a big plus
  • Computer Science or Engineering degree required, Masters degree preferred
  • Excellent communication skills, both written and spoken (fluency in English required)
