What You’ll Do

This role is for a full‑stack Software Engineer who will own meaningful product and infrastructure work that improves data quality, reliability, and the customer experience at scale. Working for a confidential client on the Data Management / Trust Engine area, you will:

• Ship end-to-end features — take well-scoped projects from design through delivery across backend services, data pipelines, and user-facing React/TypeScript surfaces.
• Contribute to technical direction — participate in design reviews, propose scalable solutions, and help define patterns and best practices.
• Uphold operational excellence — instrument services, contribute to SLO definitions, respond to incidents, and improve reliability.
• Build for scale and correctness — design ingestion and governance workflows with attention to throughput, latency, caching, testing, and resilience.
• Build foundations for trusted data — implement shared data health evaluation frameworks, metadata ingestion, observability (anomalies, schema drift), and safe cleanup workflows.
• Expand support for non-event data models — help architect entities, metrics, and dimensional data governance under a unified taxonomy.
• Leverage session replay signals — use replay-driven signals to surface untracked interactions, propose event/property instrumentation, and reduce instrumentation gaps.
• Partner cross-functionally — work closely with Product, Design, Analytics, Pipeline/Query, AI foundations, and GTM teams; engage with customers to ground technical decisions in real needs.
• Mentor and grow others — participate in code/design reviews, share knowledge, and invest in your development and teammates’ growth.
