We expect an in-depth understanding of cloud data platforms, as well as some full-stack development experience, allowing to assess interoperability and integration scenarios. Additionally, candidate should have strong leadership skills to lead activities, projects and changes across multiple user groups and stakeholders. We expect a client-oriented and service-driven attitude. To round it up, very strong communication skills in English and at multiple levels of the organization are required.

The team consists of enthusiastic data engineers, architects and platform specialists dedicated to realizing the full potential of Swiss Re's data. We engage with all parts of the company, enabling them to formulate and implement data ambitions, to develop group-wide data assets and to provide data-driven products and services to our clients. Stargate is a fully democratized platform that enables the Swiss Re group to perform data driven analysis and create data driven solutions across all spectrums of complexity and required technical expertise, based on Palantir Foundry.

About you

Essentials:

  • Minimum 5+ years of working experience.
  • Expert knowledge of data engineering concepts.
  • Experience with Spark and Python.
  • Experience with cloud-based services from major cloud providers including, but not limited to, Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services.
