We are looking for a Full-Stack Software Engineer to join a technology-focused firm that develops proprietary mathematical algorithms and automated software systems for forecasting price movements in global commodity markets, including crude oil.
This position is a strong fit for a software engineer with a Python-first background and an interest in data. While the role has a data-focused component, the ideal candidate will still be a hands-on software engineer with experience building and supporting web applications. This is not a pure data science or data analyst position.
The engineering team works with modern, cloud-based technologies and is involved throughout the development process, from building new applications and services to deployment and ongoing improvements.
What You'll Do
- Build and maintain full-stack web applications and backend services using Python
- Develop software that supports data-driven applications, mathematical models, and forecasting systems
- Work with AWS and other cloud-native technologies
- Build and maintain scalable applications and supporting infrastructure
- Contribute to CI/CD pipelines, automated deployments, and infrastructure-as-code
- Participate in system design, development, testing, deployment, and ongoing maintenance
- Work closely with other engineers to solve technical problems and improve existing systems
- Write clean, maintainable, and well-tested code
