Software Engineer (Data Platform)

We've built our internal data and R&D platform, and now we want to do far more with it - integrating AI and modern data science to turn the battery data we collect every day into faster insight and better products. That's where you come in. We're looking for a versatile software engineer who's happy ranging across the stack - building data pipelines and APIs, automating workflows, working with databases and cloud infrastructure, and applying AI to extract more value from our data. You'll join our Platform & AI team and play a central role in a platform that underpins all of our R&D, product development, and service delivery. You'll have genuine ownership here and you'll help shape how our data platform grows and how it connects to the rest of Breathe's systems.

Your day to day

• Build solutions that give our battery, solutions, and modelling teams easy access to data for analysis and customer projects
• Automate data analysis, applying AI to increase the insight we generate
• Design solutions that detect data errors early - whether human or system - so issues get flagged and resolved quickly
• Help own the development of our database solution, keeping it reliable, maintainable, secure, and robust
• Take projects from planning through implementation, testing, and verification across the software stack
• Write high-quality, testable code, including unit and integration tests
• Help plan how we scale the data platform and integrate it with other Breathe systems
• Collaborate across teams to define requirements, solve problems, and establish best practices
