We are looking for
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Data Engineering, Information Systems, or a related discipline, or equivalent professional experience.
Solid professional experience as a Data Engineer, with hands-on experience building data pipelines with Python and SQL.
Hands-on experience with cloud data platforms; Snowflake is especially valued, although experience with other cloud data warehouses (e.g., BigQuery, Redshift, Databricks) will also be considered.
Experience with data pipeline orchestration and transformation tools (e.g., Airflow, dbt, or similar).
Experience working with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and with cloud-native data architecture patterns.
Good knowledge of data modeling, data quality, data lineage, and data governance practices, ideally in the financial sector or another regulated environment.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to approach complex data and platform problems in a structured manner.
Collaborative profile, comfortable working alongside architects, engineers, business analysts, and stakeholders within a rapidly growing technology hub.
Good level of English, both spoken and written.
Knowledge of DevOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure as code (e.g., Terraform) will be highly valued.
The company is setting up a new technology center in the heart of Madrid, with a strategic role at a global level, not a support office. The goal is to grow to several dozen people in the coming months. Right now, there are real modernization projects underway: legacy systems are being updated to more modern cloud technologies and new digital tools are being built for key business processes. Joining now means entering the initial phase, with real room to help define how the team is built.
As a Data Engineer, Assistant Vice President, your functions will be:
Design, build, and maintain scalable data pipelines (ETL/ELT) to ingest, transform, and deliver data from source systems to the cloud data platform.
Contribute to the design and construction of the DWS cloud data platform (Snowflake) as part of the migration of the Madrid Tech Hub from legacy on-premise systems.
Work closely with data architects, business analysts, and reporting teams to ensure that new and existing data are correctly modeled, validated, and made available for subsequent consumption.
Develop and maintain data quality controls, monitoring, and observability in the pipelines to ensure the accuracy, integrity, and timeliness of the data.
Collaborate with DevOps engineers to build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code, and automated deployment processes for the data platform components.
Support the migration of data and workloads from legacy databases and on-premise systems to the cloud, applying best practices in data lineage, cataloging, and data governance.
Analyze and resolve production incidents related to data, ensuring the stability, performance, and reliability of the data pipelines and platform services.
Apply optimization and performance tuning techniques in the data pipelines and in the cloud data warehouse workloads.
Contribute with engineering best practices and technical standards as part of a growing and multidisciplinary Data Platforms team within the new Madrid Technology Hub.
