Data Platform Engineer

Role Description

As a Data Platform Engineer at Glitni, you take part in evaluating, designing and implementing data platforms.

You work closely with business and IT to understand what capabilities are needed in a data platform to deliver business value - whilst also addressing aspects related to security and technical performance.

We envisage that you…

  • Enjoy creating solid and scalable data platforms, with modularity and cost-effectiveness, for various clients and services
  • Thrive setting up CI/CD pipelines and building data platforms as code, and perhaps have experience with Terraform, Terragrunt or similar
  • Like working with data architecture and finding the right components to deliver testable and modern data solutions
  • Love building robust and automated pipelines to ingest and process structured and unstructured data, in the form of both batch and stream, using modern cloud technology
  • Are comfortable with agile methodology and making sound cost-benefit assessments during planning
  • Can communicate confidently in Norwegian, as most of our client work is in Norwegian
  • Want to work with like-minded people, share your knowledge with others and help drive our field forward.

What can we offer you?

  • A specialised professional environment in data
  • Exciting projects that suit your development and goals
  • A flexible working day
  • Great influence within the company
  • A good base salary and transparent bonus scheme
  • Office space in new, fresh premises in Lakkegata
  • A fun and down-to-earth social calendar

Why work for us?

Have you learnt something new today? Do you have someone you can learn from? Talented people too often end up doing much of the same over time, with the same tasks or projects. At Glitni, we wanted to break out of that pattern and learn new things all the time!

We started Glitni because we want to build a specialised consultancy, with a main focus on helping our clients create value from their data. Our fundamental philosophy is that specialisation over time makes us better advisers and consultants - and that is why we are building a consulting environment where data is the main focus - every single day.

Our goal is to build a specialised professional environment with like-minded people who love data. We believe you will experience faster professional development when you can share experiences and knowledge with other experienced data specialists. We are committed to giving you the right projects and roles - and believe development plans are for development, not evaluations and rankings.

At Glitni, we deliver data platforms on cloud solutions such as Azure, Google Cloud and AWS. We enter projects at an early stage, when the learning curve is steep, and our ambition is to hand the project over to the client once the major challenges are solved. This ensures that our consultants continue to learn new technologies and methodologies.

Building the best professional environment requires us to adapt to the needs of each individual - and diversity must be cultivated through effort; it does not happen by itself. We understand that people are at different stages of life, and can adapt roles, working hours and other things so that you can perform at your best both at work and at home.

We are a small company, founded on the principle of making decisions together as much as possible and sharing information, knowledge and ideas to find good solutions together. The path from idea to execution is very short with us - sometimes just minutes!
