What the job involves
- Bynder’s Platform Services team provides advanced, customer-specific technical services, but we're not a product development team. We don’t build new features; instead, we operate as a second-line engineering support team that delivers custom, data-driven solutions at the request of our clients and internal stakeholders
- We sit at the intersection between Customer Success, Onboarding, and Product Development teams. Our role is to understand both the technical architecture of the Bynder platform and the business needs of our clients, translating between the two
- This means we need engineers who not only have strong technical expertise but also excellent communication skills to explain complex concepts clearly to non-technical users, while collaborating effectively with developers and other stakeholders
- As a Data Engineer on the Platform Services team, you’ll work on high-impact, client-specific technical requests that go beyond traditional support
- Handling and resolving technical service requests from clients and internal teams via our Jira ticketing system
- Balancing day-to-day ticket work with longer-term service projects
- Designing, building, and maintaining reusable solutions like scripts, data workflows, and repeatable processes to solve recurring technical challenges
- Working with data migrations involving AWS S3 buckets and SFTP setups
- Extracting and transforming data from Bynder databases (MySQL/PostgreSQL) to deliver analytics and reports
- Applying metadata tagging and supporting digital asset import/export workflows
- Communicating clearly with both technical and non-technical audiences, making complex concepts accessible and actionable
- Proactively identifying opportunities to automate and streamline manual work
- Supporting knowledge sharing during weekly standups and confluence documentation to help the team scale its impact
Our take
With an increased demand for content that is agreeable, personalised, and brand consistent, the digital asset management industry is growing fast, and Bynder is keen to cement its place as a key player.
As a scalable SaaS solution which is recognized for its innate user experience, Bynder is aimed at brand-forward companies seeking a user friendly digital asset management (DAM) solution that they can utilise quickly. These companies increasingly deem DAM as necessary for a customised customer experience, and to free up time for wider strategic business initiatives, and so this presents a great growth opportunity for Bynder.
The company has built on its foundation of an innate user interface, as well as strong portal and swift deployment capacity, by expanding its partner ecosystem and integration capabilities. Serving over a million users across thousands of organizations, including the likes of Spotify, Puma, and Icelandair, the appeal of Bynder's solution is clear. In 2022, it was announced the company would be purchased by private equity firm THL, a move which will enable it to accelerate growth and "help even more brands deliver exceptional content experiences."
