Responsibilities
- Everything we ship runs on data, and the systems that collect, move and store that data need an owner. As Backend Engineer - Data & Orchestration, you take a data platform that grew fast and turn it into one system the whole company can rely on. You keep it running, you keep it clean, and you make it simpler every month. This is not a pure ETL or warehouse role: you work across the pipelines and the backend services they depend on. We will walk you through exactly what we are building as you go through the process. On a typical day, your tasks may include:
- Data collection: keeping our scrapers and platform integrations running across flaky sources, rate limits, anti-bot measures and APIs that change overnight
- Pipelines and storage: owning our event-driven pipelines end to end, from orchestration (Airflow, Dagster or similar) to databases and warehouses, built to survive failures and to keep costs in check
- Monitoring and reliability: building the monitoring and alerting (Datadog or similar) that keeps our services and integrations healthy, and the checks on freshness, volume, schema and values that catch a wrong number before anyone downs
