As a Senior Data Engineer with Frontend Focus you'll design and implement core systems that enable data science, data visualization, and agent-based applications at companies that implement data-driven decision processes to create a competitive advantage.
You'll build a data platform and internal agent-based tooling for data and business teams, including data pipeline orchestrator, data warehouses, and authenticated frontend interfaces, using:
Technologies: Python, Terraform, SQL, Pandas, Shell scripts, Next.js, React, FastAPI
Tools: git, Docker, Snowflake, Pinecone, Neo4j, Jenkins, Jupyter Notebook, OpenAI API, Apache Airflow / Astronomer, Kubernetes, Artifactory, Linux
AWS: EC2, ECS, ELB, IAM, RDS, Route53, S3, VPCs
Best Practices: Continuous Integration, Code Reviews, OAuth2/OIDC authentication, observability
The ideal candidate will be well organized, eager to constantly improve and learn, driven and, most of all - a team player!
Your responsibilities will include:
- Developing PoCs using latest technologies, experimenting with third party integrations
- Owning and evolving Next.js/React frontend with authenticated flows and secure session handling
- Delivering production grade applications once PoCs are validated
- Creating solutions that enable data scientists and business analysts to be self-sufficient as much as possible
- Designing and implementing secure, scalable access patterns (OAuth2/OIDC, authorization boundaries)
- Finding new ways how to leverage Gen AI applications and underlying vector and graph data storages
- Contributing across the stack including FastAPI backend services and agent-driven workflows
- Contributing data technology stacks including data warehouses and ETL pipelines
- Building data flows for fetching, aggregation and data modeling using batch and streaming pipelines
- Documenting design decisions before implementation
