We have scaled to the point where our current data pipelines are not where we want them to be, this is why we’re looking to hire our first Big Data Backend Engineer.

You will sit in our Defender Algo team and work day-to-day with our Data Scientists and Engineers to engineer solutions to iterate quickly on terabytes of data. We view this role as a hugely impactful, high-leverage role and strongly believe that if we can can query all of our data, in near real-time and using scalable systems then we can deliver more value to our clients through the data breaches we prevent.

Some interesting projects we're working on: 

  • An ETL pipeline transforming millions of tiny files on AWS Glue to the Parquet file format for efficient querying
  • Designing existing pipelines to use Spark setting ourselves up to handle massive future scale
  • Building a new Flask app framework allowing us to standardise how we deploy all models to production
  • Dumping terabytes of data from production databases, in real-time in a performant, scalable and secure way
  • Building a lightweight data labelling system designed specifically for labelling emails at scale

Why we think you'll love it here: 

  • It’s important to us that all Tessians are part of the journey we’re on, so we offer equity options with every role and benchmark to provide above market rate salaries - there’s plenty more too….

Be at your best, both inside and outside of work

  • A full week of work-remote a year, in addition to 25 days of paid holiday
  • Flexible working hours and working from home
  • Curate your career with development experiences uniquely suited to you
  • We’re family friendly, with policies built to support you in all stages of life
  • High-quality tech kit provided for you to work on including Tessian ANC headphones
  • If you're relocating to join the team, we'll provide a contribution to help with your costs 

Because everyone loves food...

  • A plethora of breakfast options, delicious snacks, drinks and a top-of-the-range coffee machine
  • Team lunch provided on Fridays - normally with more hummus than you can shake a stick at
  • Dinner budget for those times you just can’t tear yourself away

Beyond work

  • Elite membership of the Tessian House System...
  • On Fridays we stop at 5 and share team updates and drinks
  • Monthly team socials & a big, whole team extravaganza every quarter
  • Never-ending ping-pong tournaments
