Role Synopsis We are seeking a Senior Development Systems Engineer to join our Corporate Land team. This individual contributor will bridge business operations and technical delivery, independently building scalable automation, data, and AI-enabled solutions while contributing to architecture, standards, and roadmap decisions. The ideal candidate is a strong hands-on engineer who can own complex workstreams, partner effectively with non-technical stakeholders, and deliver high-quality solutions in a fast-paced environment. ### Key Accountabilities Serve as a senior technical partner to Corporate Land and data teams, translating business requirements into practical, scalable technical solutions. Lead hands-on design, development, testing, and deployment of automation workflows, data products, and AI-enabled tools that reduce manual effort and improve decisions. Build and maintain data pipelines, queries, applications, and analytical products using Snowflake, Databricks, Palantir, and related platforms. Apply established engineering standards for code quality, testing, documentation, observability, security, and deployment, and recommend improvements where needed. Own complex workstreams and contribute to prioritization and roadmap development based on business value, feasibility, and dependencies. Partner with stakeholders to refine requirements, evaluate technical tradeoffs, and deliver iterative solutions in an ambiguous, fast-paced environment. Participate in solution design and code reviews, share technical knowledge, and provide practical coaching to analysts and business users. Develop documentation, training materials, and user guidance that support adoption and sustainable ownership of new tools. Monitor and optimize deployed solutions for performance, reliability, adoption, and cost efficiency. ### Essential Experience and Education Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Engineering, Physics, or a related technical field, or equivalent relevant experience. 7+ years of experience in software development, data engineering, automation, analytics engineering, or a closely related technical field. Demonstrated experience independently delivering complex, production-grade data, software, automation, or AI solutions. Strong proficiency in Python and SQL, with demonstrated ability to produce clean, maintainable, well-tested code. Hands-on experience with modern cloud data platforms such as Snowflake, Databricks, or Palantir, including querying, data modeling, and performance optimization. Solid understanding of data architecture, ETL/ELT, APIs, governance, security, CI/CD, and software development lifecycle practices. Experience owning technical workstreams, contributing to solution design and code reviews, and supporting less-experienced contributors. Strong communication and stakeholder-management skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and deliver in an ambiguous environment. Desirable Criteria Experience in the energy or oil and gas industry, particularly with land, ownership, contracts, leases, title, or related business processes. Experience building internal applications, workflow tools, dashboards, or self-service analytics products. Experience with AI-assisted development tools, prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation, LLM APIs, or deploying AI-enabled applications. Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS or Azure and infrastructure-as-code concepts. Experience with data orchestration and transformation tools such as Airflow, dbt, or Databricks Workflows.
