We are looking for a
Senior Data Cloud Architect (AWS)
to join our data and cloud engineering team. In this role, you will be responsible for designing, building, and leading scalable, secure, and cost-efficient cloud data platforms, taking projects from concept through production in complex, enterprise-grade environments.

If you are passionate about cloud-native data architectures, large-scale data platforms, and leading technical initiatives that drive real business impact, this opportunity is for you.

What you will be doing


• Design and implement scalable, secure, and cost-efficient data architectures primarily on AWS.


• Lead data engineering and cloud platform initiatives end to end, from initial design to production deployment.


• Define, implement, and enforce data governance, security, and compliance standards across data platforms.


• Build, optimize, and maintain data pipelines, ETL processes, and orchestration workflows using tools such as Apache Airflow, AWS Step Functions, Lambda, and AWS Glue.


• Use Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation) to deploy, manage, and evolve cloud data platforms in a reliable and repeatable way.


• Apply hands-on development in Python and SQL to prototype solutions, solve complex data problems, and set technical standards.


• Ensure performance optimization and efficient data management for large-scale datasets, including technologies such as Iceberg tables, Amazon Redshift, DuckDB, and PostgreSQL.


• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams (engineering, analytics, security, and business stakeholders), acting as a technical leader and mentor.


• Contribute to architectural decisions, platform evolution, and best practices across the data organization.

What we are looking for


• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.


• 10+ years of experience in cloud data engineering and data architecture roles.


• Deep expertise in AWS data services, including Glue, Redshift, Lambda, and Step Functions.


• Proven experience designing and managing cloud infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation).


• Strong hands-on skills in Python and SQL, with the ability to translate complex requirements into robust technical solutions.


• Solid experience in data governance, security, and compliance within enterprise or regulated environments.


• Background in large-scale data migrations, platform modernisation, and performance optimisation initiatives.


• Excellent communication, leadership, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to influence technical direction.


• Experience working in European corporate environments, preferably within large-scale or regulated organisations.


• Full professional proficiency in English.

Plus (not required but valued)


• Exposure to Azure data services and Azure Databricks.


• Knowledge of streaming and real-time data technologies such as Kafka and Apache Flink.


• Experience implementing CI/CD pipelines for data and analytics workloads.


• Familiarity with Dataiku or similar advanced data analytics platforms.


• AWS and/or Azure cloud certifications.

Why join us?


• Lead and shape modern, large-scale cloud data platforms with real business impact.


• Work in a collaborative, high-performing, and technically strong environment.


• Take ownership of complex data architecture challenges in enterprise-grade systems.


• Continuous learning and professional development opportunities.


• A culture that values technical excellence, leadership, and continuous improvement.
