About the role

Data Engineer role at Solve Intelligence focused on building ingestion, processing, search, and data serving systems to support AI-powered patent intelligence products.

Responsibilities

  • Large-scale ingestion. Build and operate high-throughput, resumable pipelines for large datasets, with efficient incremental updates, monitoring and recovery from failures.
  • Document processing and data quality. Extract useful content from complex documents and other formats. Handle malformed records and changing schemas, and validate outputs while preserving structure and metadata.
  • Search and serving. Build keyword, vector and structured search, and design schemas, indexes and partitioning for fast queries over tens to hundreds of millions of records.
  • Connecting information across sources. Link patents, scientific records and supporting documents, preserve dates and versions, and make results traceable to their original sources.
  • Performance engineering. Profile parsing, ingestion, database builds and queries throughout development, testing against representative datasets at realistic scale. Diagnose CPU, memory and storage I/O bottlenecks, and tune jobs and infrastructure for throughput, latency and cost.

Qualifications

  • Strong Python and SQL, with experience designing and operating production databases.
  • Solid experience building and operating production data pipelines over large, messy datasets.
  • Expertise with running search systems over large document collections.
  • End-to-end ownership from raw data to user-facing functionality.
  • Good understanding of schema design, indexing and query optimisation.
