• Can diagnose problems systematically, ask good questions, and learn actively from feedback.
• Speak English at a B2 level or higher.

In your daily work you will handle the following tasks:

• Developing, testing, and maintaining parts of production data pipelines, services, and internal tooling with support from the team.
• Learning to work with BigQuery, Cloud Composer (Airflow), GCS, and other Google Cloud Platform services.
• Helping implement data ingestion, validation, data-quality checks, monitoring, alerts, and operational automation.
• Working with structured, semi-structured, and event data using formats such as Avro, Protobuf, Parquet, JSON, and CSV.
• Participating in code reviews, technical discussions, incident follow-ups, and documentation.
• Collaborating with engineers, analysts, and product stakeholders to understand how data products are used.

Technologies you will work with:

• Python, Java, Kotlin, Spring Framework, Git.
• Data formats: Avro, Protobuf, Parquet, JSON, CSV.

Nice to have:

• Personal, academic, or commercial projects involving data pipelines, backend services, cloud platforms, or SQL data warehouses.
• Familiarity with Docker, Git, CI/CD, Linux, or cloud infrastructure fundamentals.
• Exposure to DBT, Airflow, Apache Beam, Spark, Kafka, or streaming systems.

What's in it for you:

• Flexible working hours in the hybrid model (4/1) - working hours start between 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. We also have 30 days of occasional remote work.
• Well-located offices (with e.g. fully equipped kitchens, bicycle parking, terraces full of greenery) and excellent work tools (e.g., raised desks, ergonomic chairs, interactive conference rooms).
• A 16\" or 14\" MacBook Pro or corresponding Dell with Windows (if you don't like Macs) and all the necessary accessories.
• A wide selection of fringe benefits in a cafeteria plan - you choose what you like (e.g., medical, sports or lunch packages, insurance, purchase vouchers).
• English classes that we pay for related to the specific nature of your job.
• A training budget, inter-team tourism (see more here), hackathons, and an internal learning platform where you will find multiple trainings.
• An additional day off for volunteering, which you can use alone, with a team, or with a larger group of people connected by a common goal.
• Social events for Allegro people - Spin Kilometers, Family Day, Fat Thursday, Advent of Code, and many other occasions we enjoy.
