You will work with many different people within Engineering and throughout Cisco Meraki to help build the infrastructure and data pipelines to power their data-driven decisions. You will also help scale our systems to handle ever increasing amounts of data points and requests.
What you will do:
Design, build, and maintain scalable data pipelines that ingest all the data that runs our dashboard.
Build systems that process raw data and create intuitive and interesting insights for our customers.
