Pay & benefits

What you'll get

🌍What we offer

  • 💰 Competitive salary

  • 🏡 Remote within Spain + office in Barcelona Tech City

  • 🧱 Total ownership from day 1

  • ⚡ Agile environment, with senior talent and fast decisions

  • 🌍 Work with founders who have built global products

👉 If you are motivated to create systems with real business impact, this role is for you.

The role

We are looking for a Data Platform Engineer who wants to build from scratch the tools that will drive the real growth of a tech company in full scaling mode.

👉 This is not your typical backend role.

Here, you will design the systems that explain how the business grows: from user attribution to data unification and campaign optimization.

🎯Why is this role different?

  • You won't maintain systems → you will build them from scratch

  • You won't work in isolation → you will directly impact revenue

  • You won't just use external tools → you will create your own solutions

It is a real opportunity to build a data-driven growth machine.

What you'll do

🧠What will you do?

You will work hand in hand with the marketing team to turn business needs into real systems.

You will have total ownership over what you build: technical decisions, architecture, and platform evolution.

Some examples of what you will do:

  • Build key internal tools for growth

  • Design proprietary measurement and attribution systems

  • Create deep linking solutions

  • Unify and process data from multiple sources (especially mobile)

  • Define data architectures and pipelines

  • Build simple interfaces for non-technical teams
