Senior Data Engineer - Analytics

Senior Data Engineer - Analytics

Here’s your opportunity to work with data at proper scale!

During 2019 Schibsted developed a new Data Strategy that includes a reinforced effort to transform into a truly data-driven business across all of our 45+ Brands. To be the foundation and the enablers for this we are building the Schibsted Analytics Team tasked with collecting, structuring, governing, serving and analyzing granular data structures encompassing a range of data domains across the entire organization.

Analytics is about connecting people to data. In Schibsted Analytics we want to do exactly that. Our vision is to “Enable all the people in Schibsted to leverage any data in Schibsted” and we will head towards that vision by removing frictions between data and people throughout the 45+ Brands that make up Schibsted.

Our Data Engineers will create and maintain high performance, high quality data pipelines that materializes the cross Brand common data model in Schibsted (CAM). Working together with architects, BI engineers, software engineers and analytical stakeholders you will design and implement an operational technical ETL/ELT architecture delivering the shortest possible turnaround times for high volume raw data to data model transformation. You will ensure technical architecture, processes and best practices that allow for data model agility and extensibility including out-of-team contributions.

This role will be central in realizing the analytical value targeted by our Data Strategy working across all of our 45+ Brands to collect and refine a vast amount of data across many domains including, but not limited to, behavioural, content and user data.
