Jobbeschreibung

We celebrate diversity and encourage individuals of all genders (m/f/d) to apply.

We’re on the lookout for an Engineering Manager, Core Data to join our Engineering team at our office in Berlin. Join us in building the largest AI enabled fintech for healthcare!

At Nelly, we’re building data infrastructure that teams actually want to use. Our data doesn’t just flow — it’s discoverable, well-documented, and designed with the developer experience in mind. Every pipeline, schema, and tool we build ultimately serves a single goal: enabling teams to deliver more value to customers. We’re moving beyond basic data pipelines toward a trusted, collaborative platform — one where data consumers can find what they need, understand how to use it, and contribute back to its evolution. These pipelines will power strongly AI-enabled products and user flows.

As an Engineering Manager, Core Data Platform, you'll be joining a freshly launched team — shaping technical direction, guiding team, and building the platform capabilities that make future growth sustainable. If you're energized by building teams, defining strategy in ambiguous spaces, and ensuring infrastructure enables rather than blocks progress, this is your opportunity.
