We’re looking for a Junior Data Engineer to join this team and help us scale our data infrastructure, streamline data workflows, and ensure reliable data delivery across the organization.

  • Design, build, and maintain ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) workflows and integrate data from multiple sources.
  • Monitor data pipelines and proactively troubleshoot data quality or processing issues.
  • Collaborate with data consumers (e.g., data scientists, business teams) and data producers (e.g., external vendors, internal development teams) to ensure reliable data flow.
  • Support the automation and development of tools to enhance data workflows and efficiency.
  • Continuously learn and apply industry best practices in data engineering and cloud-based technologies.

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, with a proactive and hands-on mindset
  • Effective communicator, able to explain technical concepts clearly and collaborate well with cross-functional teams

    Direct and Transparent Communication: Open, honest communication builds trust, allowing us to share our progress, challenges, and when we need help, fostering a supportive environment.

    Striving for Excellence: Excellence isn’t about perfection—it’s about consistently refusing to settle for mediocrity. We take pride in delivering work we are truly proud of, embodying an attitude of care and commitment in everything we do.

    Ownership Mentality: At Kovalee, we take responsibility and seek solutions, not excuses. We value creativity, curiosity, and proactivity, and our integrity and drive enable us to achieve remarkable outcomes while enjoying the trust and flexibility we are given.

    Being a Great Teammate: Reliability and respect are at the heart of our teamwork. We empower each other with critical thinking and a positive attitude, ensuring that we move forward together and create a culture of mutual support.

    Test, Learn, Improve: Experimentation is in our DNA. We stay open to new ideas, test them rapidly, and analyze the results to learn and refine. By embracing this iterative approach, we constantly improve and push boundaries.

    Individuals representing diverse profiles, encompassing various genders, ethnicities, and backgrounds, are less likely to apply for this role if they do not possess solid experience in 100% of these areas.
