Architecture & Stack
Our data engineering team employs an ELT approach to extract data from diverse sources, load it into our Snowflake data warehouse, and transform it using dbt. We write Singer scripts in Python to manage data ingestion and leverage Airflow for workflow orchestration.
We deploy our infrastructure on AWS and use Docker and a bit of Kubernetes for containerisation and orchestration. We also use additional tools for data quality, visualisation, and reverse ETL to support our data engineering needs.
Team, Challenges & YouThe data team is distributed across Bulgaria and the UK. Because we’re a remote company, we have people in Sofia, Plovdiv, Burgas, Varna, Ruse and other parts of Bulgaria. Everyone can choose where to work from.
We have reasonable processes, organised Jira boards, stand-ups, and a team of professionals who help us nail the specifications. We value the quality of the code and good practices highly. We’ve suffered enough without them, and our management is well aware of that. We’ve even needed to explain that we don’t need so much time to pay back technical debt. Some of us even talk about those things (code reviews, automated testing, refactoring).
About the role
We seek a talented Senior Data Engineer to join our team on a fixed-term contract basis. In this role, you will play a crucial role in developing and maintaining our data infrastructure and pipelines, ensuring scalability, performance, and reliability.
You will work closely with cross-functional teams to ensure the effective collection, storage, and processing of data.
Requirements
Proven experience as a Data Engineer or a similar role.
Experience with data modelling, data warehousing, and ETL processes.
Experience with cloud-based data platforms such as AWS or Google Cloud.
Proficient in programming with Python.
Solid systems design skills.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
Ability to work collaboratively in a cross-functional team.
Excellent communication and presentation skills.
Experience with agile development methodologies.
Experience with data governance, data quality, and data security best practices.
Successfully led the adoption of engineering best practices such as release management, environment controls, CI/CD, and pipeline orchestration.

Remote work is now the norm. The difference is that we've been fully remote for many years now, and know how to properly work remotely.
