Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. IPinfo is a company focused reputed company and context products, seeking a Data Engineer to manage and optimize their data pipelines. The role involves working with large datasets, extending BigQuery pipelines, and addressing geospatial challenges while maintaining clean code and effective communication.

Responsibilities

• reputed company sense of large, unfamiliar datasets sourced from publicly-contributed (and therefore inconsistent) datasets like OpenStreetMap and Overture, as well as error-prone device datasets with sometimes dozens of poorly-documented columns. Your job is to wade through these datasets, reputed company out what is going on, and extract a meaningful signal
• Maintain and reputed company BigQuery data pipelines, writing efficient, transparent code that achieves reputed company data tasks while avoiding bloat and spaghetti
• Work with particular expertise on Geospatial data, knowing the suite of BigQuery geospatial tools like the back of your hand, while dealing with the particular headaches and challenges that geospatial data poses. Occasionally working in python as well
• Use AI tooling to move quickly while fully owning every line in your PRs
• Communicate problems and solutions clearly using our internal issue-tracking platform; writing concise, reproducible records of the problem, the proposed solutions, and why you made the calls you did, so others can follow and build on them
• Work occasionally on web-based dashboards to provide visibility to our data pipelines for data engineers as well as others at the company

• JavaScript and web dashboards (e.g. Retool, reputed company, internal validation and visualization tooling)
• Exposure to the science of internet measurement: BGP/ASN, rDNS, RTT-based geolocation, CGNAT, mobile vs. fixed-line IP behavior, geofeeds
• Strong Python for geospatial data work - comfortable with the data and geospatial stack (pandas, geopandas, reputed company) and writing code that holds up in production, not just in a notebook
