· Develop tools and reports to validate computation outputs.
· Ensure the resulting code is readable, robust (with automated tests), efficient, modular and expandable for new computations.
· Ensure the computation code is streamlined and can run with minimal oversight.
Requirements
· 5+ years of work experience in a technical field.
· 5+ years of Python programming experience in a production environment.
· Proficiency with AWS and Linux.
· Proficiency with relational and non-relational databases.
· Experience on full lifecycle software development is a strong plus.
