### **Your Team**
We are looking for a highly skilled Software Engineer with strong full\-stack experience, expertise in distributed systems, and an understanding of product analytics tools to join our engineering team. You will design, build, and integrate with cloud platforms and support business\-critical applications.
This role also involves working with Node.js services, CI/CD pipelines, and modern infrastructure tooling, including Kubernetes, GitHub Actions, AWS, and GCP.
### **What's in it for you**
* Interview process that respects people and their time
* Professional and open IT community
* Internal meet\-ups and resources for knowledge sharing
* Time for recovery and relaxation
* Bright online and offline events
* Opportunity to become part of our internal volunteer community
### **Responsibilities**
This is not a traditional QA role.
Data Test Engineering (DTE) validates analytics and data pipelines end\-to\-end — from events generated across streaming clients through ingestion, transformation, data warehouses, and downstream reporting.
We are looking for a hands\-on Data Test Engineer who combines data validation, automation engineering, and strong troubleshooting skills to protect data quality at streaming scale.
What You’ll Do:
* Validate analytics events across Web, iOS, Android, tvOS, Roku, Fire TV, and other connected TV platforms.
* Validate data end\-to\-end across ingestion, transformation, and reporting layers using SQL and data profiling to verify transformations, identify anomalies, and troubleshoot data\-quality issues, including validation in BigQuery.
* Build and maintain Java/Spring\-based automation for scalable back\-end and pipeline validation.
* Expand automated regression coverage within DTE and shared GQE automation frameworks.
* Create and use Claude Skills and AI\-assisted tools such as Claude and Cursor to improve validation, test development, troubleshooting, and engineering productivity.
* Develop test strategies and partner with BI, Data Architecture, AIDE, Product, and Engineering to drive issues through resolution.
* Support production validation, platform rollouts, traffic ramps, and post\-launch data monitoring.
### **Skills**
* 5\+ years of QA, Test Engineering, Data Quality Engineering, or related experience, with 3\+ years focused on data pipelines, warehousing, or analytics validation.
* Strong SQL skills and hands\-on experience with BigQuery or similar cloud data warehouses.
* Strong understanding of end\-to\-end data pipelines, from event generation and ingestion through transformation and reporting.
* Java development experience, preferably with Spring/Spring Boot, for automation frameworks or back\-end validation.
* Experience building or contributing to automated test/data\-validation frameworks.
* Experience validating analytics implementations across web, mobile, OTT, or connected TV platforms.
* Experience with Python or shell scripting and cloud/data platforms such as GCP/AWS, Airflow/Cloud Composer, and MongoDB Atlas; exposure to Jenkins/GitHub Actions, Tableau/Mode, Tealium, or Redshift is a plus.
* Experience with AI\-assisted development or testing, using tools such as Claude, Cursor, Claude Skills, AI agents, or other LLM\-based workflows, is a plus.
* Strong debugging, problem\-solving, and communication skills in an Agile engineering environment.
What Sets You Apart:
* You think like an engineer, not just a tester.
* You can move between client analytics, back\-end pipelines, warehouses, and automation code.
* You build reusable automation instead of relying on repetitive manual validation.
* You take ownership of complex data\-quality issues and drive them end\-to\-end.
* You are interested in applying AI to improve data quality engineering.
