* Collaborate closely with internal and external stakeholders to translate business needs into robust data solutions
* Optimize and monitor data workflows to ensure performance, scalability, and reliability
* Stay ahead with the latest trends in data technologies and bring innovative ideas into projects
Qualifications
* 7+ years experience in designing and implementing data solutions, platforms, and interfaces
* Strong expertise in data modeling (dimensional modeling, (de)normalization, etc.)
* Hands‑on experience with modern data technologies, cloud platforms, big data tools, data warehousing
* Experience with cloud‑based data platforms, Medallion architecture, Databricks and/or Microsoft Fabric
* Experience in guiding technical decisions and taking responsibility within project setups as well as mentoring team members
* Excellent communication skills and confidence in interacting with both technical and non‑technical stakeholders
* A consulting mindset, fluent in German (C1) and English for stakeholder discussions
* Passion for future developments and eagerness to learn about innovative IT solutions

* Professional growth, meaningful projects, open culture, and outstanding work‑life balance
* Access to an extensive international network of industry experts
* Opportunity to shape the future of a growing, fast‑developing sector
* Flexible hybrid work model
* Supportive organizational culture enabling success
