About the role

We are seeking a Python Software Engineer to join our Structured Data Squad, focusing on structured data processing and automation. The role centers on delivering end-to-end data applications, maintaining and improving existing data engineering pipelines, and integrating with APIs to ensure reliable data flow. You’ll also contribute to building AI agents which support tasks such as knowledge graph construction and unstructured data ingestion. This role requires collaboration with Data Scientists, Backend Engineers, and Product Managers to bring automation, scale, and intelligence to structured data workflows.

This role offers a hybrid work environment in our Marbella and Madrid offices.

Your Ramp-up Journey 

In your first month, you will focus on getting accustomed to our systems, familiarizing yourself with the existing ML engineering projects, and beginning to take ownership of core tasks such as prompt evaluation and entity validation. You will work closely with your team to ship production systems and enhance our ability to manage both structured and unstructured data at scale, particularly in structured data onboarding and ingestion.

After six months, you will have successfully designed, implemented, and maintained ETL pipelines for structured data ingestion, ensuring high data quality across workflows. You will collaborate effectively with your team to enhance entity recognition systems and support the integration of ML/NLP components into larger workflows. Your ability to write production-grade Python code and ensure the scalability and performance of our systems will have significantly strengthened our data processing capabilities.
