Senior Software Engineer (Identity Resolution)

Title: Senior Software Engineer (Identity Resolution)

Location: Remote / Kochi

Employment: Full-time

Experience: 6+ years

The Role: Work on the Identity Resolution team as Senior Software Engineer to design and construct performant algorithms, infrastructure and data pipelines to manage our graph database for our identity resolution offering. Our identity graph is constructed from billions of observations leveraging the latest in big data technologies. The Identity Resolution team is primarily focused on providing identity resolution capabilities to our internal customers enabling identity resolution across the board for our external customers. This involves integrating data sets, developing our patented identity resolution graph algorithms and scaling all this to a very large amount of data. The team works on both live streaming and batch systems and leverages machine learning so that we can be the best in class for enterprise identity resolution.

About Our Tech Stack:

• We work with some of the hottest technologies on the block: Python, Django, Java, Scala, Clojure, ES6/7, React/Redux, Hadoop, Spark, Storm, Cassandra, Kafka, HBase, Druid, ElasticSearch, Redis, RabbitMQ, Netflix OSS libraries, just to name a few. 
• We use AWS for production services, Git for revision control and Jenkins for builds and deployments. We push to production multiple times a day. The code is mostly a combination of JVM-based languages (Java, Scala, Clojure), Python and JavaScript/ClojureScript (React / Angular / Redux) in the frontend.
