Data Engineer

The job in brief:   Job Title -  Data Engineer Working model -  hybrid from Switzerland Level - Professional  Location -  Chiasso, Switzerland (only for hybrid positions) Contract -  Permanent - full-time (EUR 36 h/week) What you will own The data model of your business area. Entities, granularity, dimensional models, metrics and definitions. You decide what the source of truth is and where the boundaries of the business area sit. Definitions are treated as a product here: one owner, one documented definition, one place where it is computed, the same value wherever it is consumed. The relationship with stakeholders. You co-own the KPI set the business steers by: what we look at every week, how it is defined, and when it needs to change. You are expected to reframe the question when the question is the problem. On smaller or ongoing work, you agree priorities directly with your stakeholders. On the wider roadmap, you set priorities together with your manager, including what we can postpone or deprioritise. Analysis, sized to the business area. The split between analysis and development depends on the business area you look after, and it can change over time. Trust in the numbers. You build validation rules and monitoring on your own models, so that data issues are caught before the data reaches a dashboard or a stakeholder. When something goes wrong, you handle it end to end: find the cause, explain the business impact, fix it and add a test so it does not happen again. Leverage beyond yourself.
