Software Engineering Senior Advisor

As a Full Stack developer, you will listen to questions from the business and find an answer. You will navigate enterprise scale data systems looking for the pieces of that answer. Parts may be stored in different tables, databases, or platforms. Once found, you will assemble those pieces in a way that allows others to act on it.

The data sets you work with may be on the order of petabytes, and thus your solutions must be scalable and be efficient. You will have access to many DevOps tools to assist your work, and your solutions must fit in with those tools and pipelines. You also be part of a development community with the ability to influence those tools and pipelines, as well as be a part of the organization’s initial steps into AI and Machine Learning.

Candidates should comfortable with complex SQL queries, and have some exposure to using programming languages (such as python) to connect to data stores and analyze/transform data. Additionally, the candidate should be able to see the big picture within the data, and be able to tell a story from seemingly disjoint pieces. The ideal candidate will constantly be on the lookout for areas in the development process to improve as well as look for new and meaningful insights in the data.

Your team will act as your mentors and you will not be expected to know all of the technologies listed. Applicants with some SQL, Hadoop, and Python experience will have a head start.

You will be joining an agile team made up of senior business analysts, quality engineers, and other developers. You will work with them to deliver actionable insights to the business. Please reach out to the listed contact for details on the current work efforts.
