Since the recent fundraising, Qonto significantly raised its ambition in terms of Data. This resulted in the creation of a Data Department, handling Data Analysis, Engineering and Science, under a freshly hired VP Data. The data department grew from 5 to 15 people in less than a year (and we’re still hiring)!

Data Engineering will be at the cornerstone of our data strategy. As the Lead Data Engineer, you will join a team of 4 talented people that you will grow both in size and expertise to allow Qonto to meet its ambitious goals. The stack is efficient but still young: you will really be able to shape it.

You will be in charge of structuring the team and ensuring the evolution of the data engineering stack.

🚧 Examples of projects to come

• Implementation of proper dependency management / lineage for the nightly ingestion and processing ( and simplification to make the analytics team autonomous)
• Improvement of our GDPR architecture
• Providing tooling to automate regulatory reporting extracts, put in place real-time (or pseudo real-time), build graph visualization tools to better understand fraud patterns…

👩‍💻🧑‍💻As the Lead Data Engineer at Qonto, you will

• Grow your team: You will evaluate the skills needed to meet your goals and either hire the right people or grow your existing team members (or both).
• Make technical choices: As a technical leader, you will make sure that the engineering tech choices are in line with the data and company mission and vision.
• Get your hands dirty!: We need an operational manager that will develop features and be an example for the team.
• Build the data vision: You will help build the vision of the data department (not just the engineering part), and its roadmap
• Set the standards: You will define the standards of quality for the Data Engineering team, based on Qonto’s own standards, and make sure they are followed

• Experience: You have 5+ years of experience in Data Engineering, and 1+ year of experience as a manager
• Mastery: You have strong knowledge of Data Engineering ecosystem concepts and technologies (Python, AWS, Airflow, Kafka or similar technologies)
• Data Engineering Expert: You know how to build a data stack, and make it evolve.
• Problem Solver: You know how to overcome challenges with solutions that scale, without over-engineering.
• Vision: You know how to take a step back and think about the bigger picture. You are able to then challenge the needs without creating friction.
• Team Player: You have great communication skills and know how to interact with non-technical colleagues
• Languages: You speak English, French is a strong plus
