Data Platform Engineer (f/m/d)

We have challenging tasks for you:

As a Data Platform Engineer, you will be responsible for building and evolving modern cloud platforms for Data & AI. Together with our team and our clients, you will develop platforms that can be operated in a scalable, secure, and sustainable manner.

In doing so, you will combine cloud infrastructure, platform architecture, and modern Data & AI technologies into solutions that create a stable foundation for analytics, data engineering, and AI use cases.

In detail, you will:

• Design, build, and continuously evolve cloud-based Data & AI platforms

• Develop platform strategies and target architectures together with our clients and implement them technically

• Design scalable and robust platform architectures that serve as a foundation for data-driven solutions

• Provision modern cloud infrastructures on Azure or AWS automatically using Infrastructure as Code

• Work specifically with Terraform or OpenTofu as well as modern CI/CD processes

• Design and evolve Databricks platforms regarding workspaces, compute, networking, identity, security, and governance

• Make architecture decisions and establish best practices for performance, security, governance, scalability, and cost optimization

• Develop reusable platform blueprints, standards, and automations

• Evaluate new technologies and platform components and integrate them meaningfully into existing architectures

• Support data, analytics, and AI teams by providing stable and high-performance platforms

• Contribute to technical concepts, architecture workshops, and the further development of our standards together with our team

What we are looking for

You work in a structured manner, think in terms of platforms and architectures, and implement technical solutions cleanly and sustainably.

Ideally, you bring to the table:

• Sound experience in building modern cloud infrastructures and platform architectures

• Excellent knowledge of at least one cloud platform, ideally Microsoft Azure or AWS

• Experience with Infrastructure as Code, e.g., Terraform, OpenTofu, Bicep, or comparable technologies

• A strong understanding of scalable, secure, and maintainable system and platform architectures

• Experience with technologies in the Data & AI domain, particularly Databricks

• Knowledge in areas such as cloud networking, identity & access management, security, and governance

• Basic software development skills, e.g., with Python, as well as experience handling APIs and automation

• Experience with Git and CI/CD

• A
