Education:Bachelor’s degree inComputer Science(or a closely related core computing field, such as Computer Engineering or Software Engineering) completed within the last 0–12 months.

Core Programming:Strong foundation inPythonand fundamental software engineering principles (OOP, data structures, algorithms, version control with Git).

Distributed Computing:Academic or hands-on project experience usingApache Spark / PySparkto process large datasets.

Cloud Fundamentals:Working knowledge or project experience withAWScore services (S3, EC2, IAM, Lambda, or managed data services).

Databases & SQL:Solid grasp of relational databases, SQL query writing, data modeling concepts, and basic schema design.

Nice-to-Have / Preferred Qualifications

Coursework, internship, or personal project focus on environmental data, sustainability, clean energy, or IoT telemetry data.

Exposure to workflow orchestration tools (e.g., Apache Airflow, Dagster).

Familiarity with containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes).

Knowledge of CI/CD practices for data infrastructure.

What We Offer

Mission-Driven Impact:Direct involvement in projects that combat climate change and advance sustainable practices.

Mentorship & Growth:A collaborative environment with dedicated mentorship from experienced senior data engineers.
