Ship Quality Code: Translate complex technical requirements into clean, testable, and scalable Python code and data workflows. Innovate & Research: Participate in “Proof of Concept” (PoC) initiatives to test‑drive new open‑source tools and cutting‑edge methodologies. Stability First: Champion engineering best practices—like robust unit testing and thorough documentation—to keep the platform rock‑solid. Requirements Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s Degree in Computer Science, Data Engineering, or a related field. Experience: 1–3 years of experience in data or software engineering, plus relevant internships, research assistantships, or significant academic projects. Coding: Strong proficiency in Python (preferred), Java, or Scala, with an emphasis on writing clean, testable code. Data: Solid understanding of SQL, relational database concepts, and data modeling. Engineering: Familiarity with Git workflows, SDLC, and basic CI/CD principles. Mindset: Strong problem‑solving skills and the ability to explain the “why” behind your technical decisions. What Gives You an Edge Cloud: Familiarity with AWS services (S3, Lambda, EMR, etc.). Big Data: Hands‑on experience or academic exposure to Apache Spark. Modern Tech: Interest or experience with LLMs and AI‑driven data workflows. Salary Base salary starting from $150k plus bonus and other compensation. Benefits 401K with employee match.
