Software Engineer with Data & Quality

Responsibilities

• VirtusLab is a leading European software consulting and engineering company. Our mission is to craft clean code and practical solutions with precision and purpose. We foster a dynamic culture rooted in strong engineering, a sense of ownership, and transparency, empowering professionals to make a substantial impact in the software industry.
• The team is responsible for developing and maintaining one of the key data processing platforms. Currently, the focus is mainly on DevOps initiatives and R&D work, which is why we're looking for someone to take ownership of the Data Quality area and have a real impact on the quality of data delivered to clients. Your main responsibility will be to identify, analyse, and eliminate data quality issues, as well as build solutions to reduce their recurrence. This is a role with a high degree of autonomy and real impact; you'll work alongside an experienced team of engineers, while also having the space to propose your own improvements and shape the overall approach to Data Quality. The project presents interesting technical challenges. Any mechanisms for improving data quality must be designed to avoid affecting production environment performance. Instead of "inline" solutions, offline approaches are used, allowing issues to be analysed and fixed without impacting data processing time. We're looking for someone who will help not only reduce the existing backlog of data quality issues, but also develop a more proactive approach to detecting and preventing problems. This is an interesting project for someone who enjoys working at the intersection of data engineering, analytics, and automation and wants to make a real impact on the stability and quality of a large data ecosystem.
• JVM backend (Kotlin/Java, Spring Boot). Must be able to build their own remediation tooling and checks, not just run queries. Beam/Dataflow, Kafka, Snowflake, Bigtable are a plus, not a must.
• Data quality/observability mindset. Has built monitors, data tests, or anomaly detection. Understands the difference between firefighting and building prevention and wants the second.
• Don’t worry if you don’t meet all the requirements. What matters most is your passion and willingness to develop. Moreover, B2B need not be the only form of cooperation. Apply and find out!
• Join our team as a Data Engineer and deliver cost-effective data migrations while implementing best practices in cutting-edge data architectures!
