We offer you an influential role in a fast-growing company:
As a Junior Data Engineer, you will have a major impact by empowering the company across different areas, like GTM and Product, in always making data-driven decisions. You will build and optimize the data pipelines that ingest and process data from a variety of internal and external sources. You will also work closely with other engineers and business stakeholders, using your technical skills to understand business needs and translate them into AI-enhanced solutions.
Your role will also be instrumental in shaping the future of our data platform by actively working with our AI-augmented data engineering tooling. You will be using the latest tooling (currently Claude Code and your IDE of choice, including Cursor or Github Copilot) and adopting it for new workflows and use cases, as well as adopting it for emerging ones. As part of your journey with us, you will grow further into an AI-accelerated engineer that significantly punches above their own weight.
