What will you do?

As Sealed’s first full-time data engineer, you will have a unique opportunity to architect and build world class software for a Series B, Clean-tech, company.

The products you create will allow Sealed to scale to millions of homes.

Your north star is creating data products and pipelines that can design and deliver a clean home renovation project with minimum human interaction. In order to meet this challenge, you will work closely with data scientists, product managers, designers, software engineers, and other business stakeholders to prioritize development and determine the best strategies to maximize business value. You will work in an agile environment, creating sprints based on business and technical infrastructure needs.
