Senior Data Engineer - Terminal.exe

You will design and build the pipelines that move data from terminal operating systems (such as Navis N4) into our platform, and the transformation layer that turns raw operational data into curated, documented datasets.

Concretely, you will work on:

• ELT pipelines from on-premises terminal databases into our Azure-based platform, with near-real-time refresh (3-minute microbatch) for operational reporting and daily batch for analytics. Extraction uses watermark-based incremental queries over Kafka (Azure Event Hubs) to PostgreSQL staging. A multi-tenant data architecture on Azure PostgreSQL with database-per-tenant isolation and a standardized STG ODS
• DataMart layer structure driven by our internal declarative transformation framework (dewi)
• Our internal connector tooling written in Go, which you will help develop and extend
• Data quality monitoring: gap detection, freshness alerting, and reconciliation
• The standardized terminal data model: mapping source data from different TOS versions and configurations onto shared definitions of moves, calls, and equipment events

You will work directly with terminal operations staff, without intermediate layers.

• Attitude and experience: curiosity and a genuine appetite for architectural ownership, and 5+ years of data engineering experience, including end-to-end ownership of production data platforms. This is a product under active development, we need you comfortable deciding, not just executing.
• Core stack: strong SQL and Python; Go experience is a significant plus (our connectors and consumers are written in Go). Solid experience with SQL Server as a source system and PostgreSQL as a target store.
• Pipelines and streaming: experience building and operating ELT pipelines against operational source systems, including watermark/incremental or CDC/replica-based extraction, and with event-driven or streaming architectures, we use Azure Event Hubs with a Kafka-compatible endpoint.
• Cloud and observability: cloud data platform experience on Azure, familiarity with AKS, Azure DevOps CI/CD, and GitOps (Argo CD) is a plus, alongside a strong focus on data correctness and instrumentation, we use OpenTelemetry.
• Nice to have: knowledge of the container terminal or port logistics industry, direct experience with Navis N4 or another TOS, multi-tenant SaaS data architecture experience, and familiarity with declarative, YAML-driven transformation frameworks. Industry knowledge is a strong plus, not a hard requirement, we’ll teach you the terminal domain.

• A salary between €85,000-€99,000 per year inclusive of holiday allowance, based on your experience.
• €5,000 a year for your own growth, with a real say in how you spend it.
• 25 vacation days + the option to buy up to 10 more + local public holidays + the option of a sabbatical up to 4 months.
• Two trips abroad a year with the whole team + occasional drinks and team outings.
• €500 home-office budget and a great laptop.
• A well-earned “Hey, well done Buddy!”, so now and then.
• Fully remote, within Europe.
