Full Stack Data Analyst Jobs in Oregon (NOW HIRING)

At Diesel Laptops, we are dedicated to revolutionizing the commercial truck and off-highway vehicle repair industry. Since our inception, we have been committed to providing cutting-edge diagnostic tools, repair information, and world-class training to our clients. Our mission is to empower technicians and repair facilities with the knowledge and tools they need to efficiently diagnose and repair vehicles, ultimately reducing downtime and improving profitability. At Diesel Laptops, we pride ourselves on fostering a collaborative and innovative work environment where every team member is valued and has the opportunity to grow. 
We are seeking a hands-on Software Engineering Manager to lead a team of full-stack engineers building and operating real-time, data-driven applications. This role follows an 80/20 management-to-IC split, with primary responsibility for team leadership, delivery, and engineering quality, while remaining technically engaged through targeted contributions.
This role emphasizes building and scaling high-quality systems, while also helping evolve our existing architecture over time. Much of our application logic today lives in Python within the web layer, handling complex data querying and transformation. You will guide the team in structuring this logic into clean, maintainable patterns, with a strong focus on data modeling, data integrity, and system clarity.
As part of ongoing platform improvements, you will also support the team in incrementally modernizing the system, including simplifying or consolidating legacy components where appropriate. The ideal candidate is a strong technical leader who can both develop engineers and bring clarity to complex systems, improving reliability, maintainability, and developer experience over time.
