Our Philosophy: Product Engineering
At Soda, we believe in empowering engineers to shape our product. We consider each of our software engineers as "product engineers" with responsibilities that extend beyond writing code:
Serve the End-User: Build exceptional software that solves real-world problems for data teams and other end-users.
User-Centric: With the assistance of your Product Manager stay connected with our users to understand their challenges, gather feedback, and iteratively improve our product based on their needs.
Team-Led Roadmap: Collaboratively define your team’s roadmap based on the organization’s vision and strategy, combined with the deep domain knowledge you’ve gained from user interactions.
What You’ll Do:
Shape Product Direction: Collaborate with users, customers, and your team’s product manager to ensure we build features that solve real-world data engineering problems.
Technical Excellence: Design, implement, and maintain new features shipped directly to our customers in a fast evolving environment, focusing on quality whilst not being afraid to experiment.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Engage with your engineering manager and other technical experts in your team and organisation to ensure a robust and evolving product architecture.
What We’re Looking For:
Strong Python & SQL Skills: You have in-depth experience building software solutions in Python 3 and working with SQL in production environments.
Data Engineering Expertise: Practical understanding of data warehouses, data lakes, pipeline testing, data mesh, and related data engineering concepts.
Experience with Data Warehouses: Familiarity with common data warehousing solutions is a big plus.
Product Enthusiasm: You’re eager to join a product engineering environment to build tools that other data engineers will love using.
Our Team & Culture
You'll be part of a diverse, experienced team specializing in Backend (Java), Data Science, AI, and Frontend (Angular). This is a unique chance to collaborate, learn, and grow alongside experts from various fields. As a remote team spread across Europe, we prioritize responsibility, freedom, and flexibility. We believe that granting autonomy and decision-making power fosters a strong sense of ownership and empowerment. This approach enables everyone to achieve a healthy work-life balance, allowing you to thrive both professionally and personally.
Why This Role?
