• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field.
• Relevant certifications (optional but beneficial)
• 3+ years of professional experience in data engineering
• Deep knowledge of primary DWH design methodologies
• Experience with column and MPP databases like Vertica, ClickHouse and similar
• Experience with relational database PostgreSQL, Oracle and similar
• Familiarity with orchestration tools such as Apache Airflow or Prefect
• Solid skills in Python and understanding of the object‑oriented programming paradigm.
• Experience with Big Data Processing & Data Lakes is a plus
• Experience deploying Large Language Models (LLMs) in production environments is a strong advantage
• Good communication and problem‑solving skills
• Ability to use advanced English for different work and business purposes
• Capacity for critical thinking and attention to detail
• Decision‑making skills and the ability to adapt to new changes
• Ability to write concise and clear documentation
• Capability of dealing with constructive critics and knowing how to develop relationships with the team to achieve common goals

What we offer along the way

• Competitive salary and annual performance bonus
• Full relocation support for you and your family — flights, housing, visas, and legal assistance included
• Top‑tier health insurance with full family coverage — medical, dental, vision, mental health — plus life insurance for peace of mind
• Unlimited learning opportunities: external courses, English lessons, career and leadership development
• Education allowance covering school and kindergarten fees
• 21 working days of annual leave, plus public holidays and fully paid sick, maternity, and paternity leave
• Employee appreciation program: branded gifts, birthday day‑offs, celebration budgets for weddings, newborns, and milestones
