AlliedCrowds has a unique mission: to combine technology, data, and
finance in order to disrupt development. We do this by creating
innovative technology and new financing models that unlock capital for
entrepreneurs in emerging markets, enabling them to grow their
businesses, hire new employees, and contribute to the global economy.
The role
AlliedCrowds is expanding and we’re looking for a talented and
hardworking Python developer to join our team. You will be working
directly with the CTO and there is major room for personal growth and
development. You will work in three main capacities:
Building out the functionality of our public API: We continue to add
features to our public API as our client base expands. New features will
include tighter integration with our data pipeline, and additional
microservices to handle new client requests
Adding functionality and features to our data pipeline: Our data
pipeline is the lifeblood of AlliedCrowds. Responsibilities will include
developing the machine learning algorithm, improving the natural
language processing engine, and building out the API to provide public
access to our data.
Developing awesome products and tools for our clients: AlliedCrowds
is very much a technology firm. Whether it is building the first
crowdfunding platform in Ecuador, or a custom client to integrate with
our API, we are always working on new and interesting projects.
About you
We expect you to be hard-working, interested in learning, and
invested in personal growth. The role sits on the intersection of
software developer and data scientist -- so a love of coding, software
architecture, and data is a must. Your time will be split evenly between
building out our API, adding to our data pipeline, and building client
products. These will vary depending on priorities.
We are flexible regarding working arrangement (work from home, work
varied hours, remote work), however, we do not compromise quality or
effectiveness of work. Therefore, arrangements will be based on your
suitability. Travel experience available for those interested.
Minimum experience:
Python libraries including pandas, scikit, numpy, nltk, matplotlib, jupyter
Demonstrated 3+ years data science (machine learning, NLP, cleaning data, data pipeline management)
3+ years of demonstrated web development (building web applications in Python)

Advanced knowledge of testing methodologies and an uncompromising ethic around automated testing
Ability to communicate on both technical and non-technical levels
