Graduate Data Engineer at Checkout.com
Checkout.com is actively looking for a hard-working Graduate Data Engineer. The Data Platform team's mission is to ultimately provide all the tools/platforms which will ensure data is an asset that can be easily used to the benefit of our products, merchants and internal partners/teams.
The focus should be on maximising the amount of time other teams spend on solving business problems/innovating their products and minimising time spent on technical details around implementation, deployment and monitoring of their data-driven solutions. We're building for scale. As such, much of what we design and implement today will be the technology/infrastructure which will serve hundreds of teams and petabyte-level volumes of data.
Joining a high-growth global FinTech Company and collaborating with various enthusiastic and excellence-driven Engineers, you'll gain exposure to a fast-scaling Cloud environment where you'll be able to learn while making a real impact.
