Job description

We aren’t looking for “Jira ticket closers.” We want problem solvers, tech enthusiasts, and proactive engineers who want to understand the why and for what behind the data and propose high-value projects that move the needle for the business.

The Challenge: Beyond Pipelines to AI-Ready Systems

We are at an inflection point. Beyond maintaining a robust platform, we have a massive appetite for Machine Learning, LLMs, and Agents. Your mission won’t just be moving bytes; it will be building the infrastructure that enables Ebury to lead the Gen-AI revolution in the financial sector.

Your Cutting-Edge Toolkit:

  • Orchestration: Airflow (Cloud Composer) is our backbone.
  • Cloud Power: The full GCP suite (GKE, Cloud Run, Functions, Artifact Registry).
  • Smart Ingestion: We leverage DLT (Data Load Tool) to build seamless and scalable data pipelines.
  • Modeling & Quality: We use dbt at scale, integrating DuckDB to enforce bulletproof Data Contracts.
  • DevOps Culture: Dockerized environments and solid CI/CD are our standard in Github Actions.

What You’ll Do

  • Architect & Innovate: Design, deploy, and evolve ELT/ETL pipelines from diverse sources (APIs, transactional DBs, file-based endpoints).
  • Champion AI/ML: Actively contribute to building the infrastructure for ML models and LLM-powered Agents.
  • Business Partnership: Work closely with stakeholders to identify high-impact opportunities. If you see a better way to do things, you have the autonomy to lead it.
  • Engineering Excellence: Apply top-tier software practices (SDLC, RFCs, unit testing) to ensure our platform is a benchmark for scalability.
  • Growth & Mentorship: Benefit from a personalized 30/60/90 day plan designed to help you thrive from day one.

Requirements

Do you have experience in Unit testing?, Do you have a Master’s degree?, You’ll be a great fit if:

  • Python & SQL Mastery: You have a deep command of both (+5 years of experience).
  • Agile Problem Solver: You thrive on unexpected daily challenges, delivering smart technical solutions at speed and iterating them into robust, production-grade systems.
  • Business Partner: You are proactive and “business-curious”, you want to understand the impact of your code on the bottom line.
  • You are fluent in English (we are a global team!).

Bonus Points:

  • Hands-on experience with LLMs, Vector Databases, or AI Agents.
  • Deep knowledge of DuckDB or DLT.
  • Strong foundations in Dimensional Modeling and Data Warehousing.
  • Spanish language skills (a plus for office life in Madrid!).

Benefits & conditions

  • Competitive Salary + Performance-based discretionary bonus.
  • Vibrant Culture: Join a collaborative environment where Data Engineers, Data Scientists, Analytics Engineers, and Analysts work as one.
  • Work-Life Balance: A modern hybrid model in our Madrid office to keep the team spirit alive while respecting your focus time.
  • Open Source DNA: We follow Open Source principles internally and encourage you to contribute to external projects.
  • Continuous Learning: Personal development through certifications and specialized training.
