Data Engineer (w/m/d) - TV

We use AI to accelerate - not to replace thinking.
We design the system, steer the output, and take responsibility for what we ship.
Fast where it makes sense. Careful where it matters.

Activities

• Join our Data Engineering team and process, transform, and refine terabytes of TV and advertising data every day.
• Design and build scalable data pipelines for our TV and forecasting products
• Keep pipelines fast, clean, and reliable - from ETL to testing and deployment
• Automate wherever possible - from unit tests to CI/CD processes
• Collaborate closely with other engineers to solve complex data challenges and continuously improve our platform
• Explore new tools and frameworks - stay curious and keep experimenting

Requirements

Work with large-scale data and don't get intimidated by terabytes - you turn raw data into meaningful insights.

• Bring 1-3 years of hands-on experience in Data Engineering
• Use Python and SQL confidently in your daily work
• Have experience with Spark or Hadoop, as well as testing and CI/CD pipelines
• Operate with a "let's figure it out" mindset rather than "that's not my job"
• Take ownership, work independently, and focus on pragmatic solutions

Team

• Ownership over tickets: You're trusted with real responsibility, not just tasks. No unnecessary bureaucracy, no micromanagement - we rely on you to take things forward.
• Build > Talk: We test what works - not what sounds good. Fail fast, learn faster.
• High standards, low ego: We take our work seriously, but not ourselves. Direct feedback, honest collaboration, no drama.
• Stay sharp: Hackathons, conferences, community - we invest in your growth and keep you at the cutting edge.
• And yes - the fundamentals are covered too: 30 days of vacation + Dec 24 & 31 off, Smart Fridays (4 days week possible), mobility (Germany ticket & JobRad), sports & health offerings, mental health support, corporate benefits, RTL+ access, and more.
