Responsibilities

Design, optimize, and maintain high-performance databases, data pipelines, and APIs for suena's energy trading and analytics platform.
Model complex time-series data, enable robust integrations with modelling and data science teams, and ensure data reliability and scalability.
Drive automations to streamline data flows and system processes across the platform.
Build solutions for both greenfield and legacy systems - refactor, tune, and scale our backend to support new market and trading initiatives.
Collaborate closely with backend, modelling, and product teams to deliver seamless data flows and high-quality analytics in production.
Focus on data integrity, security, and system availability as the platform grows.

Requirements

5+ years' experience in backend development, deep expertise in SQL & NoSQL databases (e.g. PostgreSQL, TimescaleDB, DynamoDB, MongoDB), and complex, data-driven systems (e.g. energy, finance, IoT, trading).
Proven experience designing and scaling databases, optimizing performance, and building reliable ETL/data pipelines in cloud environments (AWS preferred).
Hands-on with Python (Django/FastAPI), DevOps, CI/CD, Docker, async workflows (Celery, Redis), and modern testing/monitoring setups.
Security-first and data-driven mindset, comfortable with both greenfield engineering and legacy code/data refactoring.
Excellent communication skills in English (B2/C1); able to collaborate across technical and non-technical teams.
Dealbreakers: No cloud/database experience, no production backend ownership, no appetite for complex data challenges.
