📋 Description

• Own the integrations you ship until they’re live and moving real student data correctly. • Build and own data pipelines and integration services designed for idempotency, safe retries, and observability from the start. • Treat data integrity as sacred — integrations that silently drop, duplicate, or corrupt records are worse than ones that fail loudly — and catch discrepancies before a client does. • Drive root causes to resolution across incidents, sync failures, and data discrepancies, rather than patching symptoms or papering over a flaky upstream API. • Surface production risks early — schema drift, upstream API changes, rate limits, credential expiry, partial-failure edge cases — before they become incidents. • Generalize fixes that help more than one integration into shared libraries, escalate broad-blast-radius decisions to the relevant Principal Engineer, and drive completed work all the way to release.

🎯 Requirements

• 5+ years of software engineering, including senior-level work on data integrations or backend services in a complex, multi-tenant SaaS product. • Strong, current Python for production data pipelines and integration services. • Solid MongoDB — data modeling and query performance across flexible, document-oriented schemas at multi-tenant scale (~140 client integrations). • Distributed systems — async, queue-driven architectures and the realities of partial failure, retries, idempotency, eventual consistency, and backpressure. • Third-party API integrations (Student Information Systems, Stripe, PayPal, Google, Outlook) — auth, pagination, rate limits, and graceful handling of unreliable upstreams. • AWS-hosted environments (secrets management, SQS, workflow orchestration), and comfort in an async-first, PR-based team with rotating production-reliability ownership. • Automated testing across layers, plus sound AI judgment — production experience with OpenAI APIs or comparable LLM platforms is a plus. • Deep, current fluency with agentic AI development tooling (Claude Code, Codex, or comparable), and excellent written communication that stands on its own.
