We are looking for a Junior Data Engineer for our Learning Data Model team in the heart of buzzing Berlin! 

As a Data Engineer with Backend or Full Stack background, your mission at Babbel will be to change the face of language learning one automation at a time. Working alongside your teammates in a fast-paced environment, you'll be collaborating and diving into different areas such as Data Engineering, Data Analytics, Site Reliability, InfoSec and many more to deliver innovations right on our Babbel learners hands.

You will:

• Shape our data model team by writing ETL / ELT pipelines 
• Secure our precious data and the infrastructure it relies on
• Keep the data moving towards where is actually needed (streaming and batch) with well-tested and performant solutions
• Automate them all!
• Monitoring and alerting (might be boring, but… refer to the point above)
• Participate in our knowledge sharing sessions (we're a learning company after all!)

You have:

• Implemented ETL/streaming pipelines with Spark (extra points for Databricks)
• Scheduled complex data flows with Airflow or DBT
• Showed interest in Machine Learning / have experience building ML-driven or algorithmic data products
• Mastered Python (and maybe bash) and want to raise the bar for our codebase
• Quite the experience with AWS services and cloud architectures
• Familiarity with Terraform and Github Actions
• Been there, done that, at testing, logging, monitoring and alerting (better yet if you still love it!)
• A general understanding of structured/unstructured data and SQL/NoSQL databases
• Fluency in written and spoken English
• Good collaboration and communication skills

Some perks of becoming a Babbelonian:

• Enjoy 30 vacation days and the chance to take a 3-month Sabbatical. Plus family and life situation counseling.
• Decide how, when and from where you want to work with our flexible working hours and remote friendly options as Jobbatical (up to 3 months inside the EU) or work from our fully equipped office with nap, faith and family rooms. 
• Learn and grow with the internal learning opportunities, and use a yearly learning & development budget for external training. Learn languages with Babbel for free with your full access to Babbel & Babbel Live classes.
• Take advantage of your mobility benefits options and a discounted Urban Sports Club membership. 
• Be part of our employee communities (such as Femgineers, DE&I Ambassadors and LGBTQIA groups), attend cultural and regular social events.
