The posting

At Kpler, we are dedicated to helping our clients navigate complex markets with ease. By simplifying global trade information and providing valuable insights, we empower organisations to make informed decisions in commodities, energy, and maritime sectors.

Since our founding in 2014, we have focused on delivering top-tier intelligence through user-friendly platforms. Our team of over 850 experts from 69 countries works tirelessly to transform intricate data into actionable strategies, ensuring our clients stay ahead in a dynamic market landscape. Join us to leverage cutting-edge innovation for impactful results and experience unparalleled support on your journey to success.

About the Role

As a Software Engineer on the founding Connected Supply Chain team, you will build and run the core services extending Kpler’s real-time trade intelligence platform beyond marine coverage into North American inland supply chains. Operating on a high-autonomy "you build it, you run it" model, you will carry sensor telemetry from field hardware to paying customers through streaming ingestion pipelines, robust APIs, and user-facing features. By uniting crude pipeline remote sensors, rail, and waterway data with existing maritime tracking, your work will directly deliver a single connected view from production basin to export terminal.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build and maintain scalable ingestion and processing pipelines for sensor, rail, and waterway data using Python, Kafka, and Airflow.
  • Develop backend services using FastAPI and contribute to customer-facing web applications using TypeScript and Vue.
  • Implement data validation, system monitoring, and alerting to ensure noisy time-series data from field hardware remains accurate and complete.
  • Operate owned services end-to-end, taking charge of deployments, observability, and participation in the team's on-call rotation.
  • Collaborate closely with data science and sensor operations teams to transform raw telemetry into high-value, usable datasets for early customer adoption.
  • Drive continuous platform health by participating in technical design discussions, improving CI/CD workflows, and delivering tested, well-documented code.

Experience & Background

  • 2 to 4 years of professional software engineering experience building and supporting production software.
  • Strong proficiency with Python and relational databases (SQL / Postgres).
  • Proven experience deploying, debugging, and operating backend services in cloud environments (AWS preferred).
  • Hands-on exposure to message queues, streaming platforms (e.g., Kafka), and RESTful API development.
  • Strong problem-solving skills with a high degree of agency to move from ambiguous requirements to working code.
  • Experience with FastAPI, Airflow, TypeScript, Vue, or Elasticsearch.
  • Prior exposure to time-series, IoT, remote sensor, or geospatial datasets.
  • Domain interest in energy, commodities, or logistics supply chains.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
