PROJECT OVERVIEW
Our client is an established product company in the sports-tech industry, delivering a mobile application focused on skill assessment and talent evaluation.

Ensure the architecture scales with product, AI, and data growth without overengineering
Optimize pipelines for scalability, cost efficiency, and performance.
Write clean, maintainable, and well-structured Python code following software engineering best practices.
Work closely with Product, Engineering, AI, and Business teams
IF YOU ARE
5-7+ years of professional experience in data-heavy roles (data engineering, ML engineering, or similar)
Strong programming skills in Python (clean architecture, testing, modular design not just scripts)
Solid SQL skills and experience designing analytical schemas
Hands-on experience building production data pipelines and services
Strong experience with AWS and cloud-native data architectures
Familiarity with infrastructure concepts (CI/CD, monitoring, logging, deployments)
Comfortable working with imperfect, real-world data and evolving requirements
Experience working in fast-paced or early-stage environments

Prepare your application
Use the description above to assess your fit for Opinov8. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.
Match requirements to evidence
Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.
Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.
Check the working arrangement
Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.
Review before submitting
Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.
Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.
Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
