    • Take ownership of CLAMS software libraries and data pipelining systems.
    • Develop new features to unlock potential across all CLAMS teams.
    • Build end-to-end products including technologies such as: databases; software APIs/libraries; graphical user interfaces; automation processes.

Qualifications

    • At least 5 years of industry experience
    • Fluent in C++
    • Passionate about building software systems that act as leverage for other teams
