We leverage state-of-the-art technologies, including cloud-native earth observation and environmental monitoring protocols to measure and report environmental outcomes in the first mile of agricultural and forestry supply chains. We enable sustainability-backed financial incentives to flow to the producers and aggregators in the first mile, who have the ability to act on curbing deforestation and reducing the environmental impact of the entire value chain. Despite being a young company, we are post-revenue and backed by strategic investors and advisors in our field. The Opportunity: Building a Robust Data Engine Epoch has built a powerful engine for geospatial data processing and environmental monitoring. Our current engineering strengths lie in backend architecture, cloud-native data engineering, and the core science of ecosystem modeling. We are looking for an API Engineer to design, build, and maintain robust, scalable, and well-documented APIs that power our internal and external applications. You will be critical in ensuring our complex data is easily accessible and consumable, enabling seamless integration for our front-end and partner systems. You will work in a tight-knit founding team alongside our CTO (ecosystem modeling, data science), CEO (commercial, strategy), and our Founding Full Stack Engineer (backend, cloud infrastructure). This is a pivotal role with direct impact on our platform's capabilities. What You'll Do (Responsibilities): - API Development: Design, develop, and maintain high-performance, scalable, and secure RESTful APIs using Python, with a strong focus on FastAPI. - Data Integration: Build efficient data querying mechanisms from structured databases (SQL and NoSQL) using ORMs and other best practices. Experience with dbt and jinja is a plus. - Database Management: Work with SQL and NoSQL databases, ensuring data integrity, performance, and scalability. - Documentation & Standardization: Create clear, comprehensive, and user-friendly API documentation (e.g., OpenAPI/Swagger) for internal and external consumption. Champion API design best practices. - System Architecture: Contribute to the architectural design of backend systems, ensuring resilience, scalability, and maintainability. - Strategic Collaboration: Work closely with the front-end team to understand their data needs and provide optimal API solutions. Collaborate with the CEO and CTO to align technical development with business goals. - Best Practices: Champion backend best practices, upholding high standards for clean, maintainable, and well-tested code.
