Data Engineer | REMOTE (Anywhere)
hn · REMOTE (Anywhere)
Jose has strong relevant experience with data warehousing, SQL pipelines, and geospatial work (PostGIS at Prominent Edge, Trino/Parquet pipelines at Rubercubic, emergency response data systems). His full-stack foundation, proven ability to build scalable data infrastructure, and familiarity with BigQuery-adjacent technologies (Trino, S3, Elasticsearch) make him well-suited. However, he's primarily positioned as a founding/product engineer rather than a dedicated data engineer, and his most recent focus has been on AI products rather than data pipeline architecture.
Hook: Your geospatial background with PostGIS and proven ability to architect scalable data warehouses (Trino, Parquet, Postgres) handling tens of millions of records makes you an exceptional fit for building IPinfo's Places product pipelines.
Missing: BigQuery-specific expertise, Extensive production SQL optimization experience, Data quality and testing frameworks, dbt or similar transformation tools

IPinfo.io | Data Engineer | REMOTE (Anywhere) | Full-time IPinfo is a leading provider of IP address data, including geolocation, VPN and residential proxy detection, mobile carrier data, and over 20 other context tags. Our API handles over 120 billion requests per month, and we also license our data for use in many products and services you’ve likely interacted with. We are looking for a Data Engineer to work on our Places product (https://ipinfo.io/data/places), adding detailed location context to IPs from around the world. This work involves complex BigQuery SQL pipelines to process and clean diverse and messy source datasets. We value simple, readable code and look for subtractive solutions over bloat. We are building something completely new, so the work is very empirical we approach it with an experimental, iterative mindset. Geospatial skills/background is a plus. Reach out to matt@ipinfo.io if you are interested. Please share a CV and tell us about your background and why this role is interesting to you.
