Pulse Intelligence

About Pulse Intelligence

Pulse Intelligence is building the definitive data platform for the global mining industry. We aggregate, process, and enrich data from hundreds of sources (regulatory filings, stock exchanges, company websites, news, and financial APIs) to give mining investors and analysts a real-time, comprehensive view of every mining asset, company, and commodity on the planet.

Our platform combines large-scale web scraping with LLM-powered data extraction to turn unstructured documents (NI 43-101 technical reports, RNS announcements, SEDAR filings) into structured, queryable intelligence. We're a small team shipping fast, and every engineer has an outsized impact on the product.

About the Role

We're looking for a Senior AI Data Engineer to take ownership of our entire data pipeline, from raw document ingestion through AI-powered extraction to clean, structured records in our database. You'll be the technical lead on data acquisition and enrichment: architecting scrapers for new sources, designing LLM extraction strategies, making decisions on data modeling, and driving the quality and coverage of our mining asset database.

This is a high-autonomy role for someone who can see the big picture and execute on the details. You'll decide which data sources to prioritise, how to structure extraction pipelines, and when to invest in automation vs. manual curation. You'll ship scrapers one day, redesign an entity extraction pipeline the next, and mentor the team on best practices throughout.

What You'll Do

• Own data acquisition and scraping - identify, prioritise, and build scrapers for new data sources (exchanges, regulatory filings, company websites, financial APIs) and scale them to run reliably in production
• Design LLM extraction pipelines - architect and iterate on prompt-driven pipelines that extract structured mining data (assets, production, reserves, companies) from unstructured documents
• Build the document processing pipeline - take raw PDFs, HTML, and filings from ingestion through to clean, structured data using OCR, parsing, deduplication, and text normalisation
• Drive data quality and coverage - design verification, deduplication, and enrichment workflows, and own the data model that keeps our mining asset database accurate and well-structured
• Keep pipelines running - monitor scheduled jobs, design for failure recovery, and ensure the system scales without manual intervention

What You Need

• 5+ years of Python in data engineering or backend development
• Web scraping at scale - you've built and maintained production scrapers (Scrapy, Playwright, Selenium, or similar)
• Prompt engineering - you've used LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, or similar) to extract structured data from unstructured text, and you iterate on prompts systematically
• Strong SQL and data modeling - you've designed schemas and optimised queries in PostgreSQL or similar
• Self-directed - you identify what needs doing and drive it to completion with minimal oversight

Nice to Haves

• Mining or resources industry knowledge (NI 43-101, JORC, resource classifications)
• AWS (S3, EKS) or similar cloud infrastructure
• LLM self-verification, chain-of-thought, or agentic pipelines
• Experience with workflow orchestration tools (Airflow, Dagster, or similar)
• Experience mentoring engineers or leading a small data team

Benefits

• Work on a product that maps the entire global mining industry
• Small team - your work directly shapes the product
• Remote-friendly with flexible hours
• Equity in a growing platform

Hiring Process

• Introductory call - 30 minutes
• Take-home challenge - 6 hours
• Technical & cultural fit interview - 1 hour
• System design interview - 1 hour

Location: Remote (Global team with R&D mostly in Ukraine)

Team Size: Leading a team of 4 developers

Responsibilities: Split between:

• Leadership & Architecture (50%)
• Hands-on Development (50%)

We expect you to own large end-to-end features, both by creating feature designs, delegating them to the FE/BE devs, and reviewing; and developing mission-critical, complicated parts yourself.

Pulse Intelligence is a Seed-stage SaaS start-up turning messy natural resources documents and real-time data into ready data for miners, hedge funds, and banks. 

Required Qualifications

Technical Expertise:

• 7+ years of dev experience, with significant depth in both backend and frontend development
• React/TypeScript
• Architecture patterns knowledge
• Solid database design skills
• API design experience

Leadership & Collaboration:

• 2+ years of experience leading or mentoring developers - as a team lead, or senior developer with mentorship responsibilities
• Strong communication skills - ability to explain technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• C1+ English proficiency - fluent verbal communication required for daily collaboration
• Track record of delivering projects end-to-end

Big Plus - experience with:

• Python/Django
• Advanced Kubernetes and/or Terraform
• Production-grade LLM pipelines
• Machine Learning
• Advanced Web Scraping
• B2B SaaS experience - building products for professional users with complex workflows

Our Tech Stack

Backend: Python, Django, Celery + Redis, PostgreSQL

Frontend: React, TypeScript, Redux, Material-UI
