At South Geeks, we connect elite LATAM engineers with innovative global teams. For over 8 years, we’ve built high-performing, long-term partnerships through technical excellence, cultural alignment, and genuine collaboration. We take care of the people who take care of our clients—empowering talent to thrive and make meaningful impact.

Our client is a global non-profit organization using technology to preserve and share historical and genealogical data with millions of users worldwide. Their mission-driven engineering teams build systems that power large-scale data management, digital archives, and secure integrations across multiple platforms.

We’re looking for a Data Engineer to lead the integration of a React/Java application with Monday.com, ensuring smooth, reliable, and secure data synchronization between systems. The ideal candidate combines a strong foundation in database administration and ETL processes with hands-on experience or deep familiarity with Monday.com’s GraphQL API and automation structure.

This is a project-based, hands-on engineering role where you’ll architect scalable data flows, design synchronization strategies, and work closely with developers to deliver high-quality, maintainable solutions.

• Design and implement data integration solutions between a React/Java application and the Monday.com platform.

• Architect bidirectional data synchronization to ensure consistency across systems.

• Develop and maintain ETL pipelines that support seamless data flow and automation.

• Optimize database performance and ensure data integrity throughout all connected systems.

• Collaborate with development teams to understand data requirements and deliver scalable solutions.

• Evaluate and recommend suitable ETL tools or technologies based on project needs.

• Troubleshoot and resolve integration or data flow issues.

• Create and maintain technical documentation, including data flow diagrams and integration architecture.

• Proven experience as a Data Engineer, Database Engineer, or DBA with a strong ETL background.

• Deep understanding of relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server).

• Experience with data integration and API-based connections.

• Solid knowledge of GraphQL APIs and experience integrating SaaS work management platforms (e.g., Asana, Jira, Airtable, Smartsheet, or similar). Monday.com experience strongly preferred.

• Familiarity with Java and JavaScript/React environments for integration purposes.

• Experience with ETL tools such as Airbyte, Fivetran, Talend, or AWS Glue.

• Experience working in agile environments or supporting MVP development cycles.

At South Geeks, we don’t just match skills to roles: we match people to purpose. We build lasting partnerships with our engineers, offering ongoing support, mentorship, and growth opportunities so you can thrive in every stage of your career.

• Long-term projects with global clients.

• 100% remote work.

• Paid in USD.
