Our platform has robust analytics tools that can tell video creators where people are from, where they click, and even track where in a video someone stopped watching—giving you insight into creating engaging content in the future.

• Learn quickly and deeply about Vimeo’s software platform, desktop and mobile applications
• Contribute software designs, code, tooling, testing, and operational support to a multi-terabyte BI data platform
• Collaborative work: iterative development, design and code review sessions
• Independent work: author and maintain tools for other developers, plus regular hackweeks to develop for the Vimeo platform

Skills and knowledge you should possess:

• 3+ years of engineering experience in a fast-paced environment; 1+ years of experience in scalable data architecture, fault-tolerant ETL, and monitoring of data quality in the cloud
• Proficiency in SQL
• Proficiency in Python
• Proficiency with modern source control systems, especially Git
• Experience working with non-technical business stakeholders on technical projects

Bonus Points (Nice Skills to Have, but Not Needed):

• Cloud-based devops: AWS or Google Cloud Platform
• Relational database design
• Kafka, Kinesis, PubSub and other durable, scalable messaging systems
• Spark
• Pandas or R
• Redshift, Vertica, Snowflake, CitusDB, or other distributed columnar-store databases
