Tufts University | Junior Software Engineer | Full time | Boston Area (Medford, MA) USA | Onsite or Remote (Must be US citizen)

We are looking for a junior developer to join our data group. To begin with you would primarily be working with Python 3, a relational database, and Kafka. You would be using Flask to create simple web pages that interact with a database using SQL. Also you will be using Python + Flask to create web services that send data to Kafka and Python code to read data from Kafka and process it. As Tufts is a university and believes strongly in education, you will have the option to learn plenty. Whether that is taking online classes or analyzing data sets on our spark/hadoop cluster.

You will be joining a group of 8 people in our data group. We are currently all working remote though you can optionally work in our offices if you want.

Required Skills: Python, SQL, some Linux familiarity. Also the ability to learn on your own is important.

If you are interested, please email be at jonathan (dot) mcdonough (at) tufts (dot) edu


Tufts University | Software Engineer | Full time | Boston Area (Medford, MA) USA | Onsite or Remote (Must be US citizen)

You would be joining a team of 8 in the data group and your job would primarily be moving and interacting with data. For the movement of data, we have a Kafka cluster and part of your responsibilities would be writing Python code to push data to/from Kafka. A common destination is our datawarehouse and so previous SQL and relational database experience is required. Also you will be writing small web pages using Python/Flask/Apache for other employees to interact with and modify the data. We have a Hadoop/Spark cluster for analysis and ML but for the foreseeable future, the role would involve data engineering and not data science.

This job will involve you working with many different systems across the full stack. The ability to learn on your own and then produce working software is the most important skill.
