  • 2+ years experience in building scalable APIs (e.g. using node.js, Python or Go)
  • Practical & recent experience with a typed programming language (e.g. TypeScript)
  • Solid know-how in working with SQL or No-SQL databases
  • You write well-structured, efficient, and maintainable code and actively keep the quality of the code base in check
  • You have excellent analytical and problem-solving skills

  • Experience building Data Models using dbt
  • Experience in working with a MPP data warehouse (e.g. Redshift, BigQuery)
  • Experience with centralized logging, monitoring, and alerting solutions (Datadog)
  • Hands-on experience with a cloud ecosystem (e.g. AWS, GCP) and integration with orchestration services (like Dagster or Airflow)
  • Experience of running data processing pipelines using distributed data processing frameworks
  • Hands-on Experience with Machine Learning Models or LLM-based systems is a plus
