The Role
We’re looking for a Senior Data Applications Engineer to join our small, all-senior data team.

You’ll help turn our data into useful applications, APIs and internal tools, not just tables and dashboards.

- Deep Python backend experience, including APIs, authentication and testing.
- Strong TypeScript / React experience.
