Python Engineer
Remote
Contract
Python ETL
? Customer has an existing, working, framework and the candidate would need to copy the framework but this requires deep knowledge of how Python works.
? Candidate would need to write custom utilities
•The scenario is they are reading from an infinite # of data sources (reading from a REST interface or reading from Kafka) and processing that data into a different format then writing that to their time-series database. They have existing libraries for all of this, but there is a lot of custom work that is happening between the data source processing and the writing to the database. Custom work examples:
? Utilizing patterns/pagination to sort data
? Need to utilizing timestamps from the data and use this as opposed to when the data arrived from source
? Multi-processing framework (this would be a differentiator if a candidate has used this before)
? Customer is writing to Influx DB today, but the database they are writing to may change.
•Grafana experience is required
? Once a story is written (in a Sprint), the story is validated in Grafana, so they need to know Grafana but not be an expert
