Work In Tech

"We are a cross functional team that uses Scrum and has a two-week sprint cadence. Whether you are stronger in the React stack or the .Net stack, you can get exposure to both. We tackle novel product development which includes being creative all the way from the UI to the AWS cloud." ~ David Prentice, Principal Developer

Are you someone that eats, sleeps, and breathes data? Do you love data models and developing data warehouses that are clean, efficient, and pragmatic? Are you someone who dreams about what the perfect data pipeline and data visualizations look like? You might be the perfect fit for our Data Engineering position.

As part of the Product Development group, you will join an agile software development team. You will use your knowledge of business intelligence and data warehousing to create data pipelines for our BI solution and design dashboards & data visualizations using reporting tools like Sisense, Power BI and Dundas Reporting & Analytics. You will also help build the automated deployment and testing workflows that support our quality-first software development process.
