Software Engineer, Data Acquisition

Lucidworks is leading digital transformation for some of the world's biggest retailers, financial services firms, manufacturers, and B2B commerce organizations. We believe that the core to a great digital experience starts with search and browse. Our Deep Learning technology captures user behavior and utilizes machine learning to connect people with the products, content, and information they need. Brands including American Airlines, Lenovo, Red Hat, and Cisco Systems rely on Lucidworks' suite of products to power commerce, customer service, and workplace applications that delight customers and empower employees. Lucidworks believes in the power of diversity and inclusion to help us do our best work. We are an Equal Opportunity employer and welcome talent across a full range of backgrounds, orientation, origin, and identity in an inclusive and non-discriminatory way.

Please note: To ensure a fair and efficient process for all applicants, we kindly ask that you refrain from direct outreach to our hiring managers or team members. All communication should go through the official application portal. We will review your application carefully and reach out to you if your qualifications match our needs. We appreciate your interest in Lucidworks!

The Data Acquisition team is a diverse global team responsible for developing connector plugins across Lucidworks’ suite of search and personalization products. These connectors are the lifeblood of the search ecosystem and provide the primary mechanism for indexing client data from a wide array of content repositories such as filestores, databases, CRMs, and intranets. The team is responsible for delivery of all plugins, as well as for the delivery and operation of the Data Integration Platform where they run.

As a Software Engineer, you will develop new connector plugins and maintain existing plugins as needed to fix bugs, accommodate downstream repository updates, or introduce new features in response to client needs.  You will also work on our new Data Integration Platform to deliver a robust and modern platform that makes ingesting data from clients’ source systems reliable & efficient.

The ideal candidate is comfortable using modern developer tooling, including AI-assisted coding and debugging tools (e.g., large language models), while maintaining strong independent reasoning skills. We value engineers who use tools to accelerate understanding and execution—not to replace system design judgment, debugging rigor, or critical thinking.

Lucidworks believes in the power of diversity and inclusion to help us do our best work.
