The Xccelerated Program

• You work 4 days per week as a Data Engineer at one of our partner organizations, where you design, build and optimize data pipelines that are actually used by the business.

Every so often, you'll apply existing solutions to new problems.

Besides this, you like to focus on automation of software development process, like to manage large-scale and scalable cloud environments and like to take care of the facilitation for security and system administration
