  • Learn from experienced engineers while taking real ownership of projects early in your tenure
You Have:
  • 1+ years of industry experience and a real interest in data and data systems
  • Strong technical foundations, including proficiency in one or more programming languages such as Python, C#, C++, or Go
  • Deep understanding of SQL; experience with ETL orchestration is a plus
  • Curiosity about large-scale problems, along with a strong appreciation for craftsmanship, reliability, and usability
