Job Title: Software Engineer, Data Processing & Privacy (Contract)

Location: Remote, PST

Salary Pay Range and Other Compensation :

Employment Type: Full-Time | Direct Hire

FLSA Status: Non-Exempt Schedule: Remote - PST

About the Role:

A detail-oriented Software Engineer is needed on a contract basis to build and run data processing pipelines for datasets used in research. You will take raw, heterogeneous inputs (text, code, documents, structured exports) and turn them into clean, well-structured, privacy-safe outputs ready for downstream use. The work spans ingestion, format normalization, data quality, privacy handling (including PII de-identification), and the supporting tooling that makes the pipeline reliable and self-serve. You will iterate closely with internal teams on QA findings and harden the pipeline so each new dataset is cheaper than the last.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities:

* Build and extend per-source processing for new data types as they arrive
* Ingest and normalize raw exports across many formats into consistent, well-structured outputs
* Handle privacy requirements (for example, PII detection and de-identification) to meet internal compliance bars
* Run data quality QA: automated checks plus LLM-assisted review to flag gaps, malformed inputs, and incompleteness
* Iterate on internal feedback: root-cause issues, fix, re-run, re-deliver
* Build supporting tools: auditing, data exploration, monitoring, simple search over processed data
* Land cleaned data with the right storage layout and access controls


Qualifications:

* Strong experience working in data privacy and legal environments
* Proven experience development in Python
* Experience working with Claude or other LLMs
* Strong background handling and processing PII
* Exceptional attention to detail and reliability
* Highly skilled with reviews and audits
* Previous experience at a notable technology firm is highly preferred


Benefits: Medical, Dental, Vision, 401k, Disability etc.
