As a global team at the heart of Roche, we are a community of business-minded technologists committed to help shape tomorrow’s digital future of healthcare. Our mission is to power Roche through cutting-edge digital technologies, harnessing the potential of artificial intelligence, data, and scalable tech innovations. Driven by purpose and passion, we’re building a future where digital is a core strength across all of Roche, enabling smarter ways of working, unlocking human potential, and driving breakthroughs that truly matter for millions of patients around the world.

At Roche, we offer a hybrid work model that combines flexibility with in-person collaboration. For now, we require our employees to be in our offices on average two days per week. The specific office days may vary depending on business needs, such as workshops, conferences, town halls, team meetings, and other collaborative events. Join our Data Platforms organization to help design, build, and optimize our next-generation data lake and governance ecosystem centered around the OneLake initiative.

Build end-to-end CI/CD workflows, maintain clean Git-based versioning, and uphold SDLC excellence through automated testing, linting, code reviews, and controlled environment promotion. Design, manage, and optimize scalable data lake architectures leveraging Apache Iceberg, AWS Glue (Catalog, crawlers, ETL jobs), and Amazon S3. Implement fine-grained access control, role-based policies, and least-privilege principles via AWS IAM, ensuring full traceability and alignment with enterprise data governance standards. Develop robust backend automation, APIs, and data sync layers utilizing Python (Boto3), AWS AppSync (GraphQL), REST, and serverless compute (AWS Lambda, RDS). Partner closely with distributed engineering squads, solution architects, and business stakeholders, stepping up to mentor colleagues over your first 12 months.

Who you are:

• Cloud & DevOps Core (Required): Deep hands-on expertise with core AWS services (IAM, VPC networking, CloudWatch, CloudTrail) and proven production experience with Infrastructure as Code using AWS CDK and/or CloudFormation.
• Development & Scripting (Required): High proficiency in Python (utilizing Boto3 for automation) and Git version control / CI/CD pipeline automation (GitLab CI, GitHub Actions).
• Data Lake & Architecture (Preferred): Practical experience designing data lake architectures with Apache Iceberg, AWS Glue, and Amazon S3, plus familiarity with Snowflake integrations.
• Domain & Industry Experience (Preferred): 3+ years of enterprise data experience within pharmaceutical/Life Sciences R&D or other regulated sectors (Finance, MedTech, Telecom).
• Mindset & Communication (Required): Strong collaborative mindset, senior-level debugging and root-cause analysis skills, and excellent written and spoken English communication skills.

What you get:

• Salary range 14175 - 26 325P PLN gross based on the employment contract.
