Original posting

Tufts University | Software Engineer | Full time | Boston Area (Medford, MA) USA | Onsite or Remote (Must be US citizen) You would be joining a team of 8 in the data group and your job would primarily be moving and interacting with data. For the movement of data, we have a Kafka cluster and part of your responsibilities would be writing Python code to push data to/from Kafka. A common destination is our datawarehouse and so previous SQL and relational database experience is required. Also you will be writing small web pages using Python/Flask/Apache for other employees to interact with and modify the data. We have a Hadoop/Spark cluster for analysis and ML but for the foreseeable future, the role would involve data engineering and not data science. This job will involve you working with many different systems across the full stack. The ability to learn on your own and then produce working software is the most important skill.
