We’re data-heavy and data-hungry, so you have to LOVE data. Much of your job will be working with large datasets at scale, creating complex queries, complex reports, and helping us extract more value from our dataset as it grows.

You’ll also be meshing together data from external services and APIs, so we can continue to offer our customers a more complete picture of how their site and pages are performing.

Our app is broken up across several microservices and powered by Google Cloud / Kubernetes.
