Senior Software Engineer II at Elsevier

This role is designed for a cross-functional engineer who specializes in the intersection of big data and backend services, particularly using Scala and Spark for complex metric processing.

You also get access to specialized perks like a "Personal Choice" budget and a generous sabbatical leave policy after established tenure. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have built and optimized large-scale data pipelines using Scala, Spark, and Databricks on EMR. * Are comfortable using Neo4j for graph-based calculations and Elasticsearch for high-volume aggregations. * Write production-grade Java for RESTful APIs and microservices. * Can translate abstract research metric definitions into scalable technical architecture.
