Data Engineer (Junior, Mid, Senior)

Do you get excited when hearing about trademarks and brand protection news? YES?! So do we! At Corsearch, there’s no pushing trademark solutions and brand protection from our thoughts. We’re thinking about coined trademarks in the car, a detailed design search over lunch, counterfeits while sitting with the in-laws, and anti-piracy while working out

We are a mission-led company, driven by a passion for making the world better and safer for our brand customers and their consumers. It’s what we do. And people come to Corsearch to be challenged, developed, supported, and valued 👍

✅The Role

Technology at Corsearch currently consists of Engineering and Data Science functions, with nearly 200 people globally, aligned to Trademark Solutions or Online Brand Protection Business Units.

Trademark Solutions acquires data from 200 jurisdictions globally by means of data feeds, web crawling and publications/gazettes.

The current master data system (“DMS”) is based on C#, MS SQL and MySQL. Corsearch is looking to recruit a new team to build out & transition to a replacement platform using managed services in the cloud.
