Summary

Job Title: Full-Stack BI Application Developer
Location: St Louis, MO (Only On-Site)
Hire Type: Long-term contract
Moving from Excel- and MSTR-bound reporting into interactive, governed web applications. You''''ll join a fast-moving group that owns these apps end-to-end: requirements, design, backend, frontend, deployment, and ongoing support. You''''ll have direct exposure to senior business stakeholders and broad latitude to shape how we build.

What you''''ll do
  • Build new Django apps end-to-end on BI Portal: data layer, service layer, REST APIs, templates, and JS
  • Translate vague business asks into specs, prototypes, and shipped features
  • Own data pipelines from Redshift to UI: SQL stored procedures, parallel query orchestration, Redis caching, Celery jobs
  • Design clean, accessible UIs (Bootstrap 5, AG Grid, Chart.js / Plotly) — not just functional, polished
  • Take ad-hoc requests, scope them, push back when needed, and deliver
  • Collaborate on agent and MCP server design as our AI tooling evolves
Must-haves
  • Strong Python (3.11+), Django, Django REST Framework
  • Strong SQL - comfortable reading 500+ line queries, writing CTEs, window functions, and tuning on a real warehouse
  • Redshift or similar columnar warehouse experience (Snowflake, BigQuery, Synapse all count)
  • PostgreSQL for application data
  • Redis caching patterns (key design, TTLs, invalidation)
  • Front-end fundamentals: HTML, CSS, vanilla JS, Bootstrap; comfortable building UI without a framework
  • Git, code review, and a real sense of ownership
 
Strong pluses
  • AWS (ECS / ASG, S3, Secrets Manager, IAM, CloudWatch)
  • Docker, GitLab CI/CD, nginx
  • Celery, async task design
  • Experience building or integrating LLM agents, MCP servers, or RAG pipelines
  • UI/UX sensibility - can prototype a wireframe in an afternoon and iterate
  • Working knowledge of SAML SSO, AD groups, and enterprise auth
Working Style
  • Honesty. Tell us when something is wrong, when an estimate slips, when a design needs to change.
  • Comfortable using AI dev tools (Kiro, Claude, Cursor) as a force multiplier, but capable of debugging and reasoning about output without depending on them
  • Brings ideas to the table, not just executes tickets
