What You Will Do

You'll join our Build for Scale team, which owns internal tooling, automation, and operational infrastructure. As our team's second hire, you'll design and build robust systems that capture, process, and serve data from diverse sources across the organization in order to architect scalable solutions that power reporting, automation, and AI implementations, serving as the technical bridge between engineering teams and business stakeholders. Your focus will be on building production-grade internal systems that enable the entire company to operate more efficiently and make data-driven decisions.

How You Will Contribute

Core Engineering Responsibilities:

• Build production data systems – design and implement scalable data pipelines, ETL processes, and APIs that handle structured and unstructured data from multiple sources
• Develop internal applications – write maintainable code for internal tools, automation services, and integrations
• Own system architecture – make technical decisions about data flow, system design, and technology stack choices that balance immediate needs with long-term scalability

Cross-functional Engineering:

• Partner with engineering teams – collaborate with Product and Engineering to define APIs, data contracts, and integration patterns
• Translate business requirements – work with Legal, Finance, and Investments teams to understand their needs and architect technical solutions
• Lead technical projects – own end-to-end delivery of complex systems from requirements gathering through deployment and maintenance

Infrastructure & Operations:

• Maintain production systems – ensure high availability, performance, and reliability of data infrastructure and internal applications
• Automate operational processes – replace manual workflows with robust, tested automation using appropriate technologies
• Scale data infrastructure – design systems that grow with the business, implementing proper data modeling, caching, and optimization strategies

What Makes a Great Fit

Engineering Experience (2-4 years preferred):

• Software engineering background with strong programming skills in Python, SQL, and modern development practices

• API development experience and understanding of RESTful services, webhooks, and data formats
• Knowledge of data modeling, schema design, and building scalable data architectures

Systems & Process Engineering:

• Experience automating business processes through code and low/no-code tools
• Ability to design fault-tolerant systems and implement proper backup/recovery procedures
• Knowledge of security best practices for internal systems and data handling

Collaboration & Communication:

• Can translate complex technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders
• Experience working in cross-functional teams and leading technical initiatives
• Strong project management skills with ability to estimate, plan, and deliver technical projects
