Data Engineer

Open position

Stockholm, Sweden·Full-time

[THE ROLE]

What this work looks like

You'll design and operate the data platforms our clients and ventures actually run on, not slide-deck architectures. At Vantir, data engineering means pipelines, lakehouses, and warehouses that stay trustworthy under real load, so product, ML, and business teams can move without second-guessing the data.

We work across GCP, AWS, and Azure depending on the engagement. You'll sit with consultants, founders, and client teams, make the trade-offs in the room, and ship systems they can operate after we leave.

What you'll do

  • Design and build batch and streaming pipelines that are observable, reliable, and safe to re-run.
  • Shape lakehouse and warehouse models that serve analytics, ML, and product use cases without becoming a second source of truth.
  • Own orchestration, testing, and data quality so failures surface before they become someone else's incident.
  • Partner with client data and engineering teams to modernize platforms, retire brittle jobs, and transfer ownership.
  • Contribute to technical due diligence when data architecture, lineage, or platform risk is on the table.

What we're looking for

  • Several years building production data platforms in the cloud (GCP, AWS, or Azure).
  • Fluency with transformation and processing at the level of dbt, Spark, or equivalent, and the judgment to pick the right one.
  • Experience with orchestration (Airflow-class) and treating pipelines as software: tests, CI, contracts, and monitoring.
  • Comfort modeling data for both analytics and downstream ML, not just landing tables in a warehouse.
  • You communicate clearly with engineers and non-engineers, and you take ownership of outcomes.
  • Fluent with modern AI tooling as part of how you design, build, and operate data platforms.

Nice to have

  • Real-time and streaming platforms (Kafka, Pub/Sub, Kinesis, or similar).
  • Iceberg, Delta, Snowflake, or BigQuery in production.
  • Infrastructure as Code and platform work alongside data.
  • Consulting or other client-facing delivery experience.

[HOW WE WORK]

How this role fits Vantir

This role is for people who treat data as a product, not a backlog of jobs. You'll have ownership beyond your ticket, a bias for shipping over perfect diagrams, and the backbone to challenge a brittle warehouse when you see one. At Vantir you work with founders and clients in the same week, and we expect you to leave both better off.
