Aquent is partnering with a globally recognized leader in technology, dedicated to empowering organizations worldwide with innovative solutions. This company is at the forefront of developing powerful platforms that streamline complex operations and foster collaboration across diverse teams. Join us in shaping the future of enterprise technology.

Are you a passionate Full-Stack Engineer eager to make a significant impact on how organizations manage and understand their data? We are thrilled to offer an opportunity to build the core Data Experience for a cutting-edge developer portal product, a critical tool used by companies around the globe. This is your chance to transform complex data-platform capabilities into intuitive, coherent product experiences that empower data teams to discover, understand, and manage their data with unprecedented ease. Your work will directly influence how customers interact with vital data context, helping them respond faster and more effectively when issues arise. If you thrive on solving challenging problems across the full stack and are driven by the desire to deliver impactful solutions, we want to hear from you!

What You'll Do

• Build end-to-end product experiences using TypeScript, React, and Node.js, connecting intuitive interfaces to reliable backend services and APIs.
• Develop and evolve integrations with data warehouses, transformation tools, workflow orchestrators, and source-control systems so customers can see value early and progressively bring richer data context into the developer portal.
• Create experiences that connect metadata, lineage, ownership, and workflow activity, helping customers understand the health of their data and the impact of failures without moving between several tools.
• Work directly with customers and internal data practitioners to understand their workflows, test assumptions, and turn successful use cases into reusable product capabilities.
• Own work throughout its lifecycle: discovery, technical design, implementation, testing, deployment, monitoring, and support.
• Make thoughtful tradeoffs between near-term delivery and the scalability, reliability, and maintainability expected of an enterprise product.
• Collaborate across the developer portal team and data platform teams, contributing to technical direction while helping create a consistent experience across the wider product.

Qualifications

• You have experience building modern web applications with TypeScript and React and backend services or APIs with Node.js.
• You are comfortable working across frontend, backend, and integration boundaries, and you can make progress when the problem does not fit neatly within one layer of the stack.
• You have worked with external APIs, asynchronous systems, or data integrations and understand how to design for imperfect inputs, changing schemas, and operational failure.
• You understand data platform concepts such as metadata, lineage, transformation, orchestration, data quality, and governance.
• You approach engineering as product development: you seek to understand the customer problem, test assumptions, and use what you learn to improve both the solution and the plan.
• You exercise sound technical judgment, communicate your reasoning clearly, and remain open to feedback and new information.
• You take ownership of the software you ship and care about testing, observability, maintainability, and the experience of customers who depend on it.
• You collaborate effectively with engineers, product managers, designers, customer-facing teams, and customers in a growing B2B product environment.
