You embrace change and innovation, always seeking to push the boundaries, are comfortable with challenging the status-quo, and thrive in ambiguity.

You LOVE technology and learning new things.

What we're looking for:
Amazing technical instincts. You know how to evaluate and choose the right technology and approach for the job. You have stories you could share about what problem you thought you were solving at first, but through testing and iteration, came to solve a much bigger and better problem that resulted in positive outcomes all-around.

A love for learning. Technology is continually evolving around us, and you want to keep up to date to ensure we are using the right tech at the right time.

You will be evaluating, installing, configuring, and deploying software; you will be writing code and use thoughtful engineering practices to test it, deploy it, and run it. We are a part of a larger organization, so we will rely on your ability to get things done through others.

All of our infrastructure runs on AWS. Currently we use Airflow, PySpark, NiFi, Kafka, Flink for stream processing. We store data in Parquet and use databases such as Cassandra, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Redshift and Snowflake. We do analytics using H2O, Spark and MLlib, Databricks/EMR, TensorFlow. We build awesome products for our users that use this data. We write microservices in Go and Node.js, orchestrated by Kubernetes, with user experiences written in React and TypeScript.
