What You'll Bring:

• A driven data engineer that is motivated to build great products and a great codebase in a fast-paced environment with 5+ years of related experience.

• Knowledge of API best practices and industry standards.
• Familiar with AWS cloud-based architectures, development, revision control, test, and deployment automation.
• Knowledge of event-driven architecture and design patterns. 
• Ability to clearly document and communicate technical requirements.
