Lead Data Platform Engineer

As Lead Data Platform Engineer, you'll own the data foundation behind Delvo—from connecting enterprise systems to powering the analyses customers use to make decisions. You'll set the technical direction and build it yourself, with scope spanning multi-tenant architecture, data infrastructure, ingestion pipelines, and analytical capabilities.

What you'll do

• Build the data engine behind Delvo. Shape multi-tenant architecture and shared data models so customer information stays isolated, trustworthy, and fast to query as you scale.
• Turn messy data into better decisions. Build the cleaning, reconciliation, and calculation foundations for spend analysis, meaningful benchmarks, and simulations across suppliers, categories, and time.
• Make enterprise connectivity repeatable. Work directly with customer IT teams to connect ERP systems, establish access, and understand their data.
• Build a platform the team can move on. Own ingestion, orchestration, monitoring, and recovery. Create tools that make onboarding data, investigating problems, and shipping new analytical features faster every day.
• Help keep the company at the forefront of AI-powered engineering by experimenting with new tools, automating repetitive work, and improving how the whole team builds.

What you'll need

• You've built and operated substantial data systems in production, with ownership of architecture, implementation, and the problems that emerge at scale.
• You're strong in SQL, Python, data modelling, and query optimization. You can translate complex business rules into correct, efficient analytical workloads.
• You've worked with multi-tenant systems and understand data isolation, access controls, and the trade-offs between shared infrastructure and customer-specific needs.
• You've connected enterprise systems and can hold a productive technical conversation with customer IT teams about schemas, permissions, APIs, exports, and synchronization.
• You combine senior technical judgement with execution speed. You know when a simple solution is enough, when to invest in a foundation, and how to bring others along.
• You take initiative, communicate clearly, and use AI tools thoughtfully to expand what you and your team can deliver.

Nice to have

• Experience in B2B SaaS, fintech, or data-intensive enterprise products.
• Procurement experience, though curiosity and the ability to learn a domain matter more.

What they offer

• Competitive salary and meaningful equity.
• Ownership of a core part of Delvo with direct founder collaboration.
• Top-spec MacBook Pro and leading AI tools.
• Office at Delta Campus in Berlin Neukölln.
