Requirements
For this role we are looking for a Generalist.
Generalist: Generalists are typically found on small teams or in small companies. In this setting, data engineers wear many hats as one of the few “data-focused” people in the company. Generalists are often responsible for every step of the data process, from managing data to analyzing it. This is a good role for anyone looking to transition from data science to data engineering, since smaller businesses won’t need to worry as much about engineering “for scale.”
Pipeline-centric: Often found in midsize companies, pipeline-centric data engineers work alongside data scientists to help make use of the data they collect. Pipeline-centric data engineers need “in-depth knowledge of distributed systems and computer science,” according to Dataquest.
Database-centric: In larger organizations, where managing the flow of data is a full-time job, data engineers focus on analytics databases. Database-centric data engineers work with data warehouses across multiple databases and are responsible for developing table schemas.
Characteristics we expectOur Software Engineers will lead by example. Software Engineers must therefore possess and express all the qualities we expect in our developers, including curiosity, passion, self-accountability, and diligence. In addition, owning a project’s execution will require them to be organized, disciplined, and autonomous; leading a team will require them to be patient, excellent verbal and written communicators, and able to move fluidly between macro and micro concerns.
Helpful Skill Sets & Experience
Fundamental understanding of:
Front-end languages such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
JavaScript frameworks such as React, Angular JS, and Amber
Server-side languages such as Node.js, Python, and .Net
Database technology such as MySQL, Oracle, and MongoDB

Architecting SOA applications
Writing user stories
