  • Develop and maintain metrics, dashboards, and monitoring to measure inventory data quality.

  • Partner with stakeholders to identify root causes of data quality issues and drive systemic improvements.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Networking, or related field (or equivalent experience).

  • Minimum of four (4) years of professional software development experience using Python, JavaScript, SQL, or GraphQL.

  • Experience working with relational and non-relational databases at scale.

  • Strong experience building and integrating with RESTful APIs.

  • Strong understanding of data analysis.

  • Proven experience delivering and operating production software systems.

  • Proficiency in Linux environments, Docker, and Kubernetes.

Preferred Experience:

  • Experience applying ML techniques to infer or improve missing or incorrect data.

  • Experience working with network source-of-truth platforms such as Nautobot or NetBox.
