• Data Quality: Implement automated tests and data validation checks, and help monitor pipelines so data issues are caught early.

• Troubleshooting: Investigate, debug, and resolve data and application issues in a timely manner, escalating complex problems appropriately.

• Agile Delivery & Code Reviews: Participate in sprint planning, stand-ups, and retrospectives, and take part in code reviews to improve quality and learn from the team.

• Documentation & Learning: Contribute to technical documentation and knowledge sharing, and continuously build skills in data engineering and software design.

Required Skills

• 3+ years of professional software engineering experience, including hands-on work with data pipelines, backend services, or data-driven applications.

• Proficiency in Ruby (or a comparable language such as Python), with solid understanding of object-oriented programming, testing, and clean code practices.

• Strong SQL skills and understanding of relational database design (e.g., PostgreSQL, SQL Server, or MySQL), including writing efficient queries.

• Experience building or consuming REST APIs and working with common data formats (JSON, CSV, Parquet).

• Familiarity with ETL/ELT concepts, data validation, and error handling in data pipelines.

• Experience with Git-based workflows and CI/CD; familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS preferred) and Docker.

• Working proficiency with AI coding tools (e.g., Claude, Cursor) for code generation, debugging, and testing, with the judgment to review and validate AI-generated code.

• Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills, attention to detail, and good verbal and written communication.

Preferred Qualifications

• Exposure to distributed data processing (e.g., Spark) or workflow orchestration tools (e.g., Airflow).

• Exposure to analytical or columnar data stores.

• Background in enterprise B2B SaaS or the legal technology domain.
