About the Role
The Implementation Engineer sits at the intersection of engineering and partner success, writing code that gets complex, real‑world criminal justice data into our systems while working closely with state agencies and our product teams to define what gets built and why.
Core Responsibilities
Build and maintain state data ingest pipelines: write Python and SQL to ingest, normalize, and validate raw criminal justice data from state partners. Own your state portfolio end‑to‑end: serve as the primary technical owner for 1–2 state partners, managing ingest quality, resolving data issues, and prioritizing technical work with stakeholders. Scope and deploy solutions in partnership with states: collaborate with state IT staff and agency leadership to understand data systems, define integration approaches, and translate partner needs into clear technical plans. Drive initiatives from backlog to production: independently complete scoped tickets, from code remappings and documentation to new ingest for newly signed states. Act as a feedback loop to product and engineering: bring on‑ground context from partner deployments back to core teams, improving platform robustness. Support onboarding of new states: help move from signed contract to live data by contributing to ingest scoping and early pipeline work.
Minimum Qualifications
High empathy and kindness toward the mission and the people served. 2+ years of experience building, maintaining, or debugging data pipelines in production. Strong proficiency in SQL and relational databases. Solid Python skills; comfortable writing clean, testable scripts and pipeline code. Experience working cross‑functionally or in a customer‑facing capacity, communicating technical concepts to engineers and non‑technical stakeholders. Comfort with ambiguity: able to explore undocumented legacy systems, test hypotheses, and write code to validate. Bachelor's degree in a technical field or equivalent experience.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with government data systems, legacy enterprise data, or regulated environments (e.g., CJIS, HIPAA). Familiarity with ETL frameworks, data validation patterns, or cloud data infrastructure (GCP preferred). Experience scoping technical projects or translating business/policy requirements into engineering work. Experience with technical integrations: building or consuming REST APIs (OAuth, API keys, pagination, error handling). Knowledge of web‑based tool deployment in state or government environments is a plus. Comfort with light full‑stack work (React/TypeScript) for configuration or tooling tasks. Familiarity with AI coding tools (Claude, Cursor, Copilot). Proximity to one of our state partner capitals is a meaningful plus.
Benefits
High‑quality colleagues working on a mission that matters. 90% medical, dental, and vision insurance coverage for you and your dependents. Flexible time off: 20 days of PTO, 3 days of paid volunteering time, and 13 paid holidays per year. 401(k) retirement plan with 5% company match and no vesting period. 12 weeks of paid parental leave. Complimentary One Medical membership (availability based on location). Inclusive fertility and family‑forming benefits, plus gender‑affirming care options. Monthly ClassPass credit for personal wellness. Free mental health support via Talkspace. Well‑located offices in Oakland and Manhattan; flexible remote work. Annual company offsite and other gatherings.

Recidiviz is an equal‑opportunity employer. We recruit, employ, train, compensate, and promote regardless of race, religion, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, disability, age, veteran status, citizenship, marital status, gender identity, and all other protected status required by law.
