Skills
- Proven Track Record: 8+ years building and operating production systems, with real ownership of something significant
- Python Depth: Strong Python in a serverless or service context - AWS Lambda, container images, dependency and runtime management, multi-stage job orchestration
- Infrastructure as Code: Hands-on Terraform. You've stood up a production data store yourself, including the IAM, encryption, networking, and alarms around it
- Data & SQL depth: Fluent in analytical SQL and data modeling - you've built and debugged multi-stage warehouse pipelines (ours run on Redshift) and reconciled messy source data into something trustworthy. You've worked across the major database paradigms - relational, key-value/document, and search — and know what one is the best tool for the job at hand
- Ruby on Rails: You can own changes across a large Rails codebase, even if it's not where you've spent the most time
- Cloud Native: Deep AWS across Lambda, S3, SQS, Kinesis, EventBridge, DynamoDB, Aurora/RDS, Redshift, and IAM
- ML in Production: You've kept models serving correctly over time - versioning, dependency drift, feature plumbing, explainability. You don't need to have trained them
- Adaptable & Autonomous: Experience navigating a fast-paced, growth-stage environment where priorities shift and ownership is expected
- Golang experience
- Web scraping at scale (Playwright or similar)
- OpenSearch index management and tuning
- SOC 2 or similar compliance and security remediation work
- Xgboost, scikit-learn, or SHAP
- Multifamily, PropTech, or revenue management domain experience
