We are looking for a Data Software Engineer with several years of professional experience to join our Data Team on a remote, full-time basis. Our Data Team is a six person team (soon to be seven!) working from Chile, Poland, Colombia, and the United States, and is part of our Engineering & Data Group — a quirky, talented, and humble group of about twenty with diverse backgrounds ranging from journalism to academia to international industry. About Our Data Team Our Data Team creates models, analysis, and visualizations to better understand our data about the climate, economic, and social conditions experienced by coffee farmers. Our Data Team team supports our Country Operations teams by creating tools (using Google Sheets API, SQLAlchemy, Airtables, and Looker) for them to detect outliers and glean insights from our survey data. We help our Partnerships team by creating PDF documents (using Python) for delivering sustainability insights. We create statistical and descriptive models (with a soft spot for Bayesian models) to understand issues like the cost of production farmers face, and how widespread poverty is among them. Our programming languages of choice are Python and SQL (we use PostgreSQL), although some of our analysis is also done in R. We use git for version control, Github for hosting our repositories, and pytest for automated testing. What You’ll Be Doing Building new features and adapting existing tools to improve their overall usefulness for our Country Operations teams. You will identify opportunities for improving our current workflows and our codebase. This will include using Python/SQL to build automated data workflows, reporting solutions, and more. Some of your work will include refactoring and adapting existing code to improve its robustness and quality.Improving the developer experience for our data analysts. You will be in charge of our Github repositories and infrastructure at AWS. This includes managing the build environments, maintaining our servers, and helping us with best coding practices in code reviews.Maintaining and upgrading our data pipelines. You will own our data ETLs and be responsible for their improvements and scalability. Our pipelines are written in Python running on Linux.
We are looking for a backend software engineer with a focus on python and PostgreSQL to join our Core Engineering Team on a remote, full-time basis. Our Core Engineering Team is a five-person team (soon to be seven!) and is part of our Engineering & Data Group — a quirky, talented, and humble group of about twenty with diverse backgrounds ranging from journalism to academia to international industry. While our current core engineering team is primarily located in the United States, we’re open to candidates located almost anywhere. About Our Core Engineering Team The Core Engineering Team builds software to collect, analyze, and report data about coffee farmers’ conditions and practices. This large-scale data-collection effort requires many moving parts to work together, and we use technology to support that effort at every step of the process — from identifying coffee farms in satellite imagery, to coordinating survey edits across country teams, to detecting data anomalies in real-time that can be investigated while teams are still in the field. Our work supports our Operations Teams in authoring surveys and deploying surveyors, our Data Team in analyzing field data, and our Partnerships and Data Visualization Teams in creating clear insights for our clients. While our tooling varies across internal products, our backend services primarily use a Python/PostgreSQL stack running on Linux to run our GraphQL APIs. We use git and Github for maintaining our code, CircleCI for CI/CD, and AWS for hosting our services and static resources, with containerization where appropriate for development and deployment. What You’ll Be Doing As a member of the core engineering team, you will contribute to major feature planning and development, both independently and in collaboration with your teammates.Implement new features on our core platforms, Jebena and Sini. You’ll participate in long-term planning and product roadmaps, collaborate on writing specs for the team to implement, and develop features from specs. You should be comfortable collaborating with non-Engineering teams to understand their feature needs. A lion’s share of your time will be spent working with Python and PostgreSQL to add features to our internal platforms.Maintenance and enhancements of existing code. You’ll work with other engineers to triage and resolve incoming issues (we use Sentry). Our team also reserves Fridays for bug-fixing, resolving technical debt, and discovering/relieving pain-points for our users.Manage AWS services. In tandem with our Head of IT, a minor part of this role includes helping manage our AWS account, including reviewing our CI/CD setup and proposing ways to further automate and secure our setup. (We primarily use ECS and RDS.)
We are looking for a frontend software engineer to join our Core Engineering Team on a remote, full-time basis.

Our work supports our Operations Teams in authoring surveys and deploying surveyors, our Data Team in analyzing field data, and our Partnerships and Data Visualization Teams in creating clear insights for our clients. While our tooling varies across internal products, our frontend projects generally use React and Apollo, and interface with Python/PostgreSQL back-ends over GraphQL APIs. We use git and Github for maintaining our code, CircleCI for CI/CD, and AWS for hosting our services and static resources, with containerization where appropriate for development and deployment.

We are partnered with an external team to design a website that reflects a new phase in Enveritas’ public visibility. You’ll have an active role in realizing those designs for the first few months of your tenure at Enveritas.
