What you tell people at parties
'I am a data hacker: I move and transform data to answer business questions.'What you really do
How you do it
Team
You'll work in a Scrum team of four to six members formed mostly by Python developers with a passion for data. The team is managed by a Team Lead. The Teams backlog is cured by the Product Owner and the Scrum Master. Your team works closely together with Business Analysts and a team of Data Scientists, providing them with data structures they can easily use to support company decisions.A day at the office
After your morning Scrum standup, Rafael sends you a Pull Request to speed up the transfer of data from the ERP system using a new messaging system. You review it together and then merge the code. After that, you join David, the Product Owner, who wants to discuss and design a new architecture for providing insights about Customer Service costs to the Finance department. Just before lunch, you pass by Andres, a data scientist who is working on a new Machine Learning algorithm which can forecast warehouse stock. You help him moving some data to BigQuery. You invite him to have lunch together with your team. On the way back, you share your concerns about the Google Adwords ingest process with David. It's losing records, so you want to refactor some of the python code. You add a few automated tests, send the Pull Request to your teammate, Dirk, for review and at 16:30, the improvements are automatically deployed via our continuous integration pipeline. By 17:30, you're done for the day and, together with your team members, head to the bar for a drink.What we're asking

Every day, millions of people rely on WeTransfer to share their creative ideas. So, the work we do matters. Come and be a part of it.
We are currently building a User Growth & Analytics team to help support our strategies and ideas with crystal clear data so that our decisions are based on our users and for the right reasons.
As a Data Engineer you will have the opportunity to build robust, scalable data pipelines that will handle billions of rows of data. You will collaborate with data scientists, product managers, and engineers by taking raw data and transforming it into actionable insights
What better way to show what it's like to work here, than to ask Gabor - our Head of User Growth and Analytics to explain what his week looks like.
Monday
Monday’s are all about starting the week off strong. The User Growth & Analytics team is responsible for the entire funnel, from brainstorming ideas to kicking off experiments. Next to number crunching, Monday's are also for our weekly brainstorm sessions where we come up with new experiment ideas.
Weekly updates are also given to the Management Team on key growth metrics to vet how we’re performing relative to our annual targets.
Tuesday
We typically prioritise new experiments early in the week and they have a tendency to fall on Tuesday’s. We clearly hash out the problem we’re trying to solve and start to discuss how we can go about solving it in a multidisciplinary setting.
While we are jump starting new initiatives, we are also constantly adding new ideas as inspiration strikes to our idea pipeline, which houses potential experiments to be run. Some questions we consider when adding ideas to our pipeline of potential experiments are: how do we improve the virality of our offering? How can we increase the branching factor? How can we better convert receivers of transfers into active senders?
Wednesday
When we have a set of growth experiments selected, we prepare them into our Growth Experiment Flow. This involves asking the right questions up front, analysing the data which will become the basis of our hypothesis. Since we touch a lot of the product features, we need strong alignment between all those involved, people in Design, Tech, Customer Support, and Marketing.
I really thrive on being in a design led business, surrounded by creative minds and opportunities to build our community. Our initiatives are driven and informed by the insights we collect from our experiments and its great to see our work influence the direction of our product.
Thursday
Every Thursday morning we have a company wide meeting over breakfast where we briefly highlight and discuss the latest happenings in the different teams along with a couple of key company goals that have been set for the year. For growth, we discuss how our monthly active users are trending over the past month relative to same period the year prior. We add in some commentary on some initiatives we’ve got running at the moment, a few experiments we’ve got in the pipeline, and the high level takeaways of last week’s projects.
Aside from the breakfast meeting, we make sure to keep the trains running full steam ahead. That can range anywhere from clearing blockers that are holding up certain experiments from launching to continuing to optimise our process within the team. From ideation to pushing initiatives out the door to continue to boost our experimentation velocity.
Friday
If there’s such a thing as tying up loose ends, we’ll do our best to close the week in a tidy way so that we can pick up right where we’ve left off on Monday. We have a get-together where we take note of the latest status of existing experiments and those that have launched that week. The key events of the week are jotted down in our event log to make sure we can best attribute changes to our core growth metrics going forward.
We are looking for someone with:
Even better if you have
>10 datacenters
>1000 servers

>100000s trades a day
<0.000001 seconds latency
