• Analyze and optimize database performance using indexing, query tuning, and execution plan analysis.

• Troubleshoot database issues and support production problem resolution.

• Monitor scheduled jobs, data processing workflows, and system integrations to ensure reliable operation.

• Collaborate with database administrators and infrastructure teams to maintain performance, availability, and data integrity.

Collaboration and Technical Leadership

• Partner with business stakeholders and technical teams to understand requirements, evaluate tradeoffs, and deliver effective solutions.

• Participate in architecture, design, engineering, and change management discussions.

• Create and maintain technical documentation, including system architecture, data flows, process diagrams, and operational procedures.

• Mentor junior engineers through technical guidance, code reviews, and knowledge sharing.

• Help establish and maintain Python development standards and engineering best practices.

• Take ownership of technical challenges while balancing user experience, business needs, reliability, security, and long-term maintainability.

You enjoy solving challenging problems and building software that delivers meaningful value. You are comfortable working across the full software development lifecycle-from requirements and design through implementation, deployment, and production support.

You communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical audiences, value collaboration, and take pride in delivering reliable, maintainable solutions.

• Professional experience developing software with Python.

• Experience working with Microsoft SQL Server, including complex queries, stored procedures, functions, and performance optimization.

• Experience designing and consuming RESTful APIs.

• Strong understanding of software engineering principles, design patterns, testing practices, and source control.

• Ability to analyze complex technical and business problems and develop practical, scalable solutions.

• Curious and eager to learn new technologies, systems, and business domains.

• Builds institutional knowledge to better understand users, systems, and organizational goals.

• Takes ownership, works independently, and knows when to seek guidance.

• Communicates clearly and collaborates effectively across technical and business teams.

• Values documentation, maintainability, and long-term system health alongside feature delivery.

• Focuses on user needs and business outcomes when making technical decisions.

• Considers reliability, security, scalability, and maintainability as core engineering responsibilities.

• Embraces an AI-native approach to software engineering, using modern AI tools to accelerate learning, improve quality, and enhance productivity.

• Continuously looks for opportunities to improve products, processes, and team effectiveness.

• Experience with FastAPI, OpenAPI/Swagger, or similar frameworks.

• Experience mentoring developers or providing technical leadership.

• Experience working in Agile environments.

• Experience with enterprise applications, CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, or containerized deployments.

We're looking for engineers who take ownership, enjoy figuring things out, and are committed to building software that makes a meaningful impact. If you're excited by challenging technical problems, continuous learning, collaborative teamwork, and creating solutions that improve the experience of our users, we'd love to hear from you.
