Requirements

enabling teams to operate efficiently and at scale. You'll work closely with Data Engineers and Data Scientists to build repeatable, reusable, and automated data assets that support client projects across Europe. Much of the work is backend-focused, requiring strong coding foundations and an engineering-first mindset. While the role is not typically client-facing, strong communication is required to work effectively in a global team environment. What You'll Do As part of your graduate rotation, you will: Develop a deep understanding of Visa's data ecosystem and how data is used across Data Science, Product, and Analytics teams. Build, test, and maintain ETL/ELT data pipelines using Python, SQL, Spark, and other big-data tools. Support the design and delivery of scalable, reusable data assets to be used repeatedly across client engagements. Automate and standardize backend data workflows to improve the reliability and consistency of data used by downstream teams. Work with large datasets, performing transformations and ensuring data quality, integrity, and accuracy. Collaborate with global Data Engineering teams (North America & other regions) on productionizing and maintaining key data assets. Participate in code reviews, contribute to technical documentation, and follow engineering best practices including Git-based version control and CI/CD. Troubleshoot data pipeline issues and assist with performance optimization. Qualifications Basic Qualifications Permanent right to work in the UK. Please specify this on your CV.
