First 12 Months

  • You will build and manage high-performance real-time data pipelines, taking significant ownership of key components of the stack.
  • You will share. Exploring knowledge and findings with teammates is highly encouraged, with weekly opportunities to host or attend learning sessions including members of both Engineering and Data Science teams.

Skills You'll Bring

  • You enjoy learning from your experiences and sharing your knowledge with your team.
  • You work on diverse problems across different systems.
  • You appreciate code and system maintainability, and support continuous improvement.
