We are seeking talented engineers who have experience working as part of a cross-functional team of professionals to develop overall concept, design and integration objectives in a variety of environments. This person should be a self-motivated, strategic thinker with the drive to take ownership of large efforts. If you’re creative, persistent, passionate about the transformative power of data, and want to have an impact on a fast-growing business, then we want to meet you.

We’d love to see:

• a BS in technology or engineering field, or equivalent experience.
• 1-3 years software development experience programming in Java.
• experience developing at the "data layer" (we're not too concerned with specific tech, since we integrate with and use it all - just that you have a level of experience building software that works with databases).
• the ability to use innovative analytical approaches to proactively solve a broad range of problems across technologies.
• the ability to translate business requirements into a technical design that can be understood and implemented by a cross functional team.

• experience in Web Services Design, Testing, and Implementation.
• experience with Elasticsearch (Java API, maintaining multiple search indices, etc.).
• worked with "graph" data and triplestores (Semantic Web, RDF, SPARQL, Neo4J, etc.).
• built flexible, model-driven approaches to data management.
• worked in an agile, CI/CD based, test-driven engineering environment.
• experience writing parsers or using tools such as ANTLR or Lexer.
