Job description

Are you obsessed with solving business problems that have a real positive impact on our customers and company? We are an AI-first engineering shop, leveraging AI tools to solve business problems. As an entry-level Data Engineer, you will be the pilot driving AI tools for code generation, peer reviews, security scanning, quality assurance and production support. Your primary responsibility is not to hand-write code all day, but to serve as the skilled, human-in-the-cockpit ensuring AI-generated products correct, secure, performant, and solves the most important, impactful business problems.

Essential Functions

Reasonable accommodation may be provided for individuals with disabilities to perform these essential functions

Priority #1 is knowing our business. You will be provided with extensive training on our business and then be expected to take the initiative to maintain and grow this knowledge.

You will then use your business knowledge to unleash your internal entrepreneur to identify, understand and solve business problems.

You will solve business problems by building AI-generated solutions:

Collaborate closely with business partners to turn requirements into precise prompt and acceptance criteria

Prompt, review, debug, and validate AI-generated code with minimal supervision

Expertly prompt and iterate with AI coding tools to produce high-quality solutions

Perform code reviews on AI-generated and human-written pull requests

Prompt and maintain unit, integration, and end-to-end tests

Identify bugs, security issues, performance problems, or architectural mismatches in AI output and either fix them or re-prompt effectively

After you launch the solution, you will constantly circle back with the business to see if the solution is solving the problem and rapidly iterate through changes to improve the effectiveness of the solution.

You may do this in a team setting with other engineers or tackle a problem independently.

Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Data Engineering, or related discipline (2025 - May 2026 graduates strongly encouraged)

0-2 years of professional experience (internships and academic/personal projects count)

Ability to quickly read, understand, and debug C# /.NET code

Experience AI coding assistant preferred

Working knowledge of C#, ASP.NET Core, Web API, Entity Framework Core, JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML, CSS, SQL and relational databases, Git and PR-based workflows

Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with attention to detail

Excellent verbal, written, and communication skills

Enthusiasm for AI-driven development and prompt engineering

Supervisory Responsibility

This position will not have supervisory responsibility.

Benefits & conditions

This is a full-time position. Workdays are Monday through Friday with flexible core hours. Occasional hours beyond 40 per week may be required during releases; on-call or weekend work is rare for entry-level roles.
