Senior Clojure Engineer (Remote)

We're expanding the team that works on our core football data pipelines. This involves batch and stream processing of millions of events a day that we collect from video, merging that data with outputs from statistical and computer vision models, enriching it with complex spatiotemporal logic. We then offer all this as a data product to the world's biggest football teams, as well as using it to power our own consultancy and web-based analytics apps.

We're looking for top Clojurians to help build the next generation of our data processing platform. The ideal candidate will have at least some of the following skills and experience:

• Architecting and contributing to large, backend Clojure codebases.
• Processing and transforming complex sequences of data.
• Building stateful streaming applications on top of Kafka or similar.
• Managing large relational databases in Postgres or similar.
• Performance optimisation in Clojure and in databases.
• Integrating and validating external data sources with Spec or similar.

We're also hoping that you're the type of person that likes to:

• Mentor more junior team members.
• Demonstrate and evangelise best practices in Clojure and beyond.
• Keep an eye on new ideas and libraries in the Clojure ecosystem.
• Interact with other remote teams and stakeholders.

Knowledge of football (of the soccer variety) would be advantageous but isn't a hard requirement - it's a fascinating domain and we'll teach you what you need to know.
