[Hiring] Software Engineer @Data Elephant

Role Description

Data Elephant is a boutique data and AI consultancy serving clients across energy, mining, legal, sports/entertainment, and logistics. We're hiring an Intermediate to Senior Software Engineer to join our team. This is a hands-on, client-facing consulting role on a fast-moving project that is remote in Canada.

• Design and build an executive-ready application on Databricks Apps, translating stakeholder needs into a working product.
• Build BI-style visualizations and reporting components suited for an executive audience.
• Contribute app/product thinking to a prioritized use case backlog and help scope future implementation phases.
• Participate in client workshops and weekly status reviews, communicating technical progress to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Apply AI/ML capabilities where relevant to enhance the app.

Qualifications

• 4+ years of software engineering experience, with some exposure to data engineering or data products.
• Experience in full-stack development including APIs, CI/CD, and front-end tools such as React, NextJS or Typescript.
• Experience building internal tools, dashboards, or applications on top of data platforms - Databricks Apps experience is a strong plus, but experience with other low-code/no-code app frameworks (Retool, Streamlit, Power Apps, etc.) is also valuable.
• Comfort working with BI tools (Power BI preferred) and translating raw/early-stage data into executive-friendly visuals.
• Some familiarity with AI/ML concepts and applying them in applied, product-oriented contexts.
• Strong communication skills - this is a client-facing consulting role.
• Bonus: experience in energy, mining, or other industrial/resource sectors.
