This position requires a strong focus on creating user-friendly interfaces for our custom web applications. A strong interest in baseball is a plus, but a passion for problem-solving is essential.

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to implement new features.
• Communicate with stakeholders about technical issues and new developments.
• Identify and implement process improvements.

Qualifications and Experience

• Understanding of cloud infrastructure management.
• Experience in a sports data environment, preferably baseball.
• Experience with code reviews, with the ability provide and receive continual feedback.

Things to Note

• This position is preferably in-person, but remote is an option for the right candidate.
• We leverage large language models to assist in development, but every piece of code is reviewed by at least one human engineer. We maintain a full understanding of our codebase and expect the same from you.
• Since you will be maintaining the custom applications used by a baseball team, you might need to work non-traditional hours to ensure tools are operational.
