Sennos is a rapidly growing start-up looking for someone who can quickly adapt to a changing environment and who has the desire to grow with us!

Position Summary

This role sits on the Product Development team and focuses on building backend services that transform raw sensor data into reliable, usable information products. The engineer will develop and evolve Python-based microservices that support analytical and model-driven functionality, working closely with data scientists and product partners. This is a hands-on role in a growth-stage environment, emphasizing scalable systems, pragmatic delivery, and continuous improvement as the platform matures.

Responsibilities

·       Design, build, and maintain Python microservices that ingest raw sensor readings and produce derived, structured, or aggregated data outputs

·       Collaborate closely with data scientists to integrate statistical and AI models into backend services so they can run reliably in production

·       Translate product and domain requirements into maintainable service implementations and data-processing logic

·       Contribute to the reliability, scalability, and performance of services across development and production environments

·       Implement data validation, error handling, and monitoring to support correctness and resilience of data services

·       Work with relational data models, writing efficient and well-structured SQL to support product and analytical use cases

·       Participate in improving existing systems through refactoring, performance optimization, and architectural evolution as the platform grows

Required Qualifications

Education:

·       Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related technical field (or equivalent years of professional experience)

Experience:

·       Professional experience building backend services using Python

·       Experience working with microservice-based architectures or service-oriented systems

·       Experience contributing to systems where reliability, scalability, and robustness are important design considerations

Skills:

·       Strong SQL skills and experience working with relational data models in production environments

·       Understanding of data processing concepts such as transformation, aggregation, and validation

·       Ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional partners, including data scientists and product stakeholders

·       Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail

·       Effective communication skills for technical collaboration

Preferred Qualifications

·       Experience using analytical Python libraries such as pandas, NumPy, and matplotlib

·       Exposure to integrating statistical or model-driven logic into backend or service-based systems

·       Familiarity with cloud-based deployment environments and containerized services

·       Experience implementing or working with observability practices (logging, metrics, alerting)

·       Exposure to distributed data processing patterns or event-driven architectures

Team Working Style

·       The Product Development team operates in a growth-stage environment where systems evolve alongside product needs

·       Engineers balance thoughtful design with pragmatic execution, iterating as requirements and scale become clearer

·       Team members are encouraged to take ownership of their contributions while learning from peers and shared standards

Physical Requirements and Work Environment

·       Ability to sit for extended periods while working at a computer

·       Office setting with remote/hybrid flexibility

·       Minimal travel required (occasional team meetings or company events)
