The Opportunity
As a Data Engineer at Demyst, you will be powering the latest technology at leading financial institutions around the world. You may be solving a fintech's fraud problems or crafting a Fortune 500 insurer's marketing campaigns. Using innovative data sets and Demyst's software architecture, you will use your expertise and creativity to build best-in-class solutions. You will see projects through from start to finish, assisting in every stage from testing to integration.
To meet these challenges, you will access data using Demyst's proprietary Python library via our JupyterHub servers, and utilize our cloud infrastructure built on AWS, including Athena, Lambda, EMR, EC2, S3, and other products. For analysis, you will leverage AutoML tools, and for enterprise data delivery, you'll work with our clients' data warehouse solutions like Snowflake, DataBricks, and more.
While this is a fully-remote role, successful candidates are expected to be based to Bengaluru where Demyst is building its next hub. As you will be supporting clients globally, you will be expected to align your working hours to the US.
