Permanent employee, Full-time · Amsterdam

About us
Our team has been built with the same attention and care as our product, and we value motivated and impact-driven team players. For more information about us, you can visit the Crunchr career page.
Some context about the role
As a Senior Integration Engineer/Architect at Crunchr, you will play a pivotal role in developing a platform that accelerates our implementation team and customer’s ability to tap into the value of People Analytics.
 
One of the cornerstones of Crunchr, the product, is our data model and the consolidated view we create for our customers. One of the cornerstones of Crunchr, the service, is our data engineering and ability to bring together domain knowledge and experience with technology.  As we move further into the domain of AI and the future of work, we are reimagining the way we bring the complete data picture to our customers. 
 
Our current integration platform is built around Jenkins, StackStorm, Python and pandas, which is not flexible and scalable enough to support our future needs. We are developing a new platform, and we need your expertise to make this a success. The platform will need to include a suite of plugins/connections integrating with internal and external systems, esp. HR systems such as Workday or SuccessFactors. The main users will be internal data engineers and customer teams, and the platform should provide tooling, automation, observability, and self-service capabilities. This is your chance to help us design and build out the architecture and technologies that will lead the way in the future of work!
  
This role is ideal for the person that thrives at the intersection of hands-on development and technical innovation. You will form a part of the larger infrastructure and product teams and will therefore collaborate and co-develop with other engineers, product managers and designers. You will also take an active role in the general architecture of Crunchr, collaborating with our other architecture and senior engineers. Your work will have a direct impact on our customers, driving their adoption, improved user experience and faster time to value.
 
You will report to the VP Product  (based in the UK) and collaborate closely with the Engineering, Infrastructure and Data Engineering teams to ensure the platform evolves in line with business and technical needs.
If you have a curious mind and you want to take broad ownership on deep problems, are forward thinking and experimenting with newer technologies and architectures we invite you to apply for the opportunity to help us shape the future of Crunchr!
  
 Some of your responsibilities will be:
  • Gather and refine requirements to design and architect a platform that will be used to connect to other systems (mainly HR systems) and pull data into Crunchr.
  • Collaborate and co-develop with the data engineering team to ensure they have the right tools to ensure an end-to-end service for importing data into Crunchr.
  • Drive the design and implementation of REST and GraphQL APIs, and ensure seamless integration with internal systems and cloud infrastructure.
  • Collaborate with senior full-stack engineers to design, develop, and maintain a platform that enhances data engineering and customer implementation workflows and productivity.
  • Take ownership of key technical decisions, balance trade-offs, and address challenges in a productive manner.
  • Contribute to fostering a culture of continuous improvement through code quality, best practices, and knowledge sharing.
