Job description

Datashake is building a data layer for the Internet, turning scraped data into intelligent data. We are API-first and build tools for developers, ranging from software engineers to quants and data scientists.

Datashake is part of Shake Ventures, an established business with thousands of paying customers and a team of 15. We're searching for a full-time Python Engineer (remote) that can help build out our existing APIs. Being bootstrapped (not venture-backed) and fully remote, we don’t strive for growth at all costs, and are building a company that we can be proud of, and enjoy working for.

Our ideal candidate has:

2+ years of Python experience
Experience working with Redis and Celery queues
A passion for delivering highly maintainable and scalable code
An appreciation for data quality and consistency

Nice to have:

Experience creating products for developers, data engineers and/or data consumers
Experience with high volume scraping (eg. rotating IPs, CAPTCHAs)
Experience with ElasticSearch
A keen eye for detail, striving for perfection
Self-starter who is able to take ownership of projects

In a typical day, you will:

Refactor code to improve our logic
Add new functionality to our APIs
Write understandable API documentation (internal or external)
Uphold our high engineering standards and bring consistency to our product development
Ensure data quality and consistency across our scraping

Our team is fully-remote and we communicate primarily through Slack, Asana and a few short, weekly meetings via Hangout — we believe the best work happens when given lots of uninterrupted time that’s free of distractions.
