Are you comfortable working in an agile, fast-paced environment? Then you've come to the right place!
Strong Python skills and a track record of writing clean, simple, and well-tested code
Experience deploying AWS services with IaC (Terraform), including Lambda, S3, IAM, ECS, DynamoDB, and RDS
Strong knowledge of database optimization techniques (e.g. partitions, indexing, and query performance tuning)
Experience with at least one cloud data warehouse (e.g. Redshift, Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks)
Experience with BI solutions (ideally Metabase) and orchestration tools (AWS Step Functions)
Experience building, maintaining, and documenting APIs (FastAPI, Flask, etc.)
Experience with modern AI technologies such as LLMs, embeddings, and vector databases
Experience working effectively in collaborative environments
Proactivity, flexibility, and responsiveness are characteristics we value very much

What the job involves

We are looking for a Senior Data Engineer who will support our mission, using the latest and greatest services and technologies
If our mission is aligned with your values and personal goals, we want to get to know you!
Develop and maintain scalable data pipelines, storage solutions, and architectures to support our carbon accounting and decarbonization objectives
Design and implement complex data models for analytics use cases
Build efficient data transformations and continuously improve performance to balance execution time and environmental impact
Design and implement AI-driven features to enhance customer data exploration, anomaly detection, and intelligent insights
Take ownership of projects with a hands-on mentality, including technical reviews, documentation, and mentoring

Our take

The EU’s Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation means that 75% of European companies across the EU and U.K. reported their environmental footprint in 2023. That represents a massive opportunity for startups like Plan A that deliver B2B monitoring services of companies’ sustainability indicators.

The startup is hoping to distinguish itself in a market that is now saturated with services, some of which offer little practical benefit. Plan A's B Corporation certification demonstrates that its tools comply with the strictest reporting standards and reflect the latest developments in climate science.

The company is planning to furnish its product to become best in class, focusing on decarbonisation tooling and the tricky Scope 3 calculations for various industries. While decarbonisation via offsetting can be a lucrative area, Plan A must be careful not to encourage compensation measures for avoidable emissions as this could delegitimise its ESG reporting system and undercut the benefits of using its platform.
