Software Engineer
Augmodo · United States
Own the logic behind a spatial data ingestion and conflation engine, building versioned pipelines that turn raw edge data into reliable insights for retail customers. Combine rules-based normalization and RegEx with LLMs for complex data matching and entity resolution.
What you'll do
- Design and maintain versioned data ingestion and conflation pipelines
- Ensure data outputs for customer dashboards are accurate and reliable
- Build rules-based normalization and RegEx logic for bounded tasks
- Integrate LLMs for complex data matching and entity resolution cost-effectively
- Manage data schema and pipeline versioning without breaking downstream consumers
Requirements
- Extensive experience building reliable, staged pipelines for complex ingestion
- Experience with entity resolution and merging messy data sources into a Golden Record
- Comfortable with LLMs and prompt engineering, with pragmatic judgment
- Commitment to versioning code and data schemas
Nice to have
- Experience in retail, logistics, or supply chain (SKUs, UPCs, inventory data)
- Experience with spatial data (GIS, LIDAR, Computer Vision metadata)
Benefits
- Medical, dental and vision insurance
- 401(k)
- Equity

About Augmodo
Augmodo is building the "operating system for the physical shelf." We use spatial computing and wearable AI to provide real-time, store-level insights that were previously impossible to capture. We are moving fast, and our data needs to move even faster—while remaining hyper-accurate.
The Challenge
We are looking for a Software Engineer to own the logic behind our Spatial Data Ingestion & Conflation Engine. You will build the pipelines that take raw, complex data from the edge and transform it into high-fidelity insights for our customers. This role is about precision at scale: ensuring that when a brand or retailer looks at our data, it is versioned, reliable, and "production-ready."
Key Responsibilities
Build Staged Pipelines: Design and maintain versioned data pipelines that handle the ingestion and conflation of complex retail data (e.g., matching computer vision detections to master product catalogs).
High-Fidelity Output: Ensure that data outputs surfaced to consumer-facing dashboards meet a high quality bar for accuracy and reliability.
Hybrid AI Strategy: Implement a "right tool for the job" approach—building robust rules-based normalization and RegEx logic for bounded tasks, while strategically integrating LLMs to solve high-complexity data matching and entity resolution.
Scale & Cost Management: Architect solutions that are mindful of the massive scale of retail environments, ensuring AI integrations are cost-effective and performant.
Versioned Data Evolution: Manage the lifecycle of data schema and pipeline logic to allow for rapid iteration without breaking downstream consumer insights.
Required Qualifications
The "Data Plumber" Mindset: Extensive experience building reliable, staged pipelines for complex ingestion tasks.
Entity Resolution & Conflation: You have experience merging disparate, messy data sources into a unified "Golden Record."
Pragmatic AI Experience: You are comfortable with LLMs and prompt engineering but remain skeptical enough to know when a simple regex or bounded heuristic is the better engineering choice.
Engineering Rigor: You believe in versioning everything—from your code to your data schemas.
Bonus Points
Physical Product Domain: Experience in retail, logistics, or supply chain (handling SKUs, UPCs, and physical inventory data).
Spatial Data: Experience working with data that has a physical or geographic component (GIS, LIDAR, or Computer Vision metadata).
