Software Engineer, Data Platform

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in United States.

📋 Description

• Design, develop, and manage systems that convert large volumes of identity data from third-party integrations to product users with accuracy, timeliness, and operational excellence.

• Create the shared foundations and interfaces (APIs, services, materialized models) that transform raw identity data into the essential components that drive our products.

• Contribute to the technical vision for a premier data infrastructure that empowers engineering, product, and AI teams, facilitating seamless access to high-quality data.

• Set up SLOs, monitoring, and operational tools to detect and address failures in identity data systems before they impact customers.

• Advocate for and apply best practices in software engineering to develop scalable, reliable, and secure data-centric applications. Promote software engineering principles within the data domain.

⛳️ Requirements

• 3-7 years of experience as a backend or platform engineer building production data systems relied upon by other teams, including ingestion and synchronization pipelines (Dagster, Airflow, or similar orchestration tools) or service layers interfacing with a transactional database (MySQL/Postgres) that abstracts storage for internal users.

• Proficient backend development skills in **Python**, **Go**, or **TypeScript**, emphasizing **clean API design**, **testability**, and **observability**.

• Strong intuition for data accuracy, observability, and SLOs in systems where downstream products rely on the output.

• Experience in designing service or API interfaces over a transactional datastore (MySQL/Postgres) that define contracts enabling independent evolution for producers and consumers.

• Familiarity with identity and access governance (IGA) data (e.g., identities, accounts, entitlements, group memberships) and understanding how its accuracy, timeliness, and traceability influence downstream governance outcomes at scale.
