Data Engineer

Does sensitive data, data governance, and making data accessible spark some of your inner butterflies? Keep reading!
Pleo is hiring a data engineer to help propel its data-driven journey into other dimensions (pun intended).
We see data as the starting point for making decisions and validating hunches. We work across all parts of the business: with our fraud team to make sure that only the money that companies want to spend is actually spent; to the simple joys of shipping a feature and seeing if our users even notice; to helping our internal teams make better, data-driven decisions.
In the data teams, we want to make data human and accessible. We are responsible for providing an internal data platform with robust, timely and well-structured data that empowers the whole of the company to build on top of it and do amazing things. As we collect highly sensitive and personal data such as card and company information, we are charged with ensuring necessary technical solutions to manage and structure appropriate data access.
We’re looking for you, a Data Engineer in our Data Privacy Team, that will help drive and ensure the whole company is safely using data. Someone that wants to be part of a team that thrives on solving the knotty problems of getting the right data to the right people, on ensuring high-speed, safe and accurate processing, on building potent data tools, on understanding how the whole data landscape of Pleo looks.
You won't only be part of the data team but part of the whole Pleo team: artisans looking to be challenged, wise sages looking to learn. You'll work with pretty much everyone aside from the usual suspects. We’re talking about designers, product managers, customer success people and that sort of thing; they're going to crave your solutions. We're looking for an architect of happiness and simplicity. We don't want to share a complicated product to our clients, and you will also have a big say in that.
We are strong advocates for diversity here. The engineering team at Pleo is made of people coming from different backgrounds. A Nordic-born company with women, men, aliens and shooting stars from Slovenians, South Africans to Danes and Canadians, in the office but also remotely throughout the world. We even sometimes travel together to explore!
You will thrive in this role if you
Have a passion for both engineering and data and understand how they tie together.
Are interested in ensuring that data is used safely, securely, and in accordance with industry best practices and regulations.
Like to reason about how data flows through systems.
Know your way around the modern data engineering ecosystem and are comfortable with the DevOps way of doing things.
Are comfortable with some of the key data engineering tools like SQL, Python, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS/GCP or DBT.

Your colleagues say you
Work in English with ease (it's our company language)
Bring a solution-centric mindset
Are very curious to the the story and the people behind the data
Are a continuous learner & systematic thinker
Are a person they would also enjoy having a coffee with (virtual or not)

In your first year you will work on:
Designing and implementing solutions to help categorise data, audit how data is being used, and simplifying how we manage access to data;
Growing the ecosystem that allows access to data across the company, including Business Stakeholders, other Engineers, and Data Analysts / Scientists;
Rolling out data privacy tooling and integrating it with the Pleo product.
