About the position
As an engineering team, we believe strongly that empathy improves our solutions. Seeing how people use the product is a priority and the way we get to the right answer. Engineers will have the opportunity to work closely with our team onsite to understand the variety of use cases that Peregrine serves. The Data team consists of product-oriented engineers working at the intersection of high-scale data and thoughtfully designed UX. We own and architect the data platform powering Peregrine's user-facing applications, from our core data ingestion engine to the complex networking and pipeline tooling our Deployment Strategy team uses to deliver Peregrine to customers. We value both ownership and collaboration-you will take full responsibility for major features and work closely with other engineers to drive them to completion. We believe that humility and empathy are essential for building the right solutions-you will collaborate directly with our deployment team and users as we iterate to solve their problems. Perseverance and creativity are crucial to executing our vision.
