Job Description:
The engineer owns backend components that support capabilities across the sourcing organization. This includes building foundational platforms used by multiple downstream teams rather than single features. The engineer contributes to technical roadmaps, platform evolution, and architectural direction while maintaining strong code quality and testing standards.
The role also includes mentoring through collaboration, technical discussion, and example. Success requires operating effectively in a fast‑changing environment with high context and minimal day‑to‑day direction. This role involves building and maintaining Java-based services that support the sourcing platform while working closely with data science workflows, including analyzing data and handling model inputs and outputs.
The position requires querying and analyzing large datasets to inform both machine learning initiatives and broader business decisions, as well as translating those data insights into meaningful system-level improvements. Additionally, the role contributes to dashboards and visualizations, helping interpret and communicate model outputs effectively.
