Your Role

As a Senior Data Engineer in the reservations data team, you will play a critical role in transforming raw reservation data from dozens of PMS systems into trusted, scalable, and high-quality KPI insights used across the company.

You'll work on production-grade data pipelines that power booking curves, occupancy rates, pickup analytics, and other core reports relied on daily by multiple teams and customers.

Your Responsibilities

• Design, build, and maintain scalable and reliable data pipelines using our modern data stack (Snowflake, Dagster, and dbt).
• Own end-to-end data flows, from ingestion services (Django & Celery) to analytics-ready models in the data warehouse.
• Contribute to the migration of legacy Django/Celery-based pipelines toward our modern data platform architecture.
• Collaborate closely with a Product Manager, Data Engineers, and Backend Engineers to prioritize integrations and deliver high-impact data capabilities.
• Ensure data quality, reliability, and observability through testing, monitoring, and clear documentation.
• Support multiple internal teams by providing accurate, timely, and well-documented reservation data they can trust.
• Continuously improve scalability, automation, and operational efficiency as data volume and integrations grow.
• Take ownership of features and improvements from design to production, including post-deployment monitoring and iteration.

Your Profile

• 4+ years of professional Python experience, ideally in data engineering and/or backend systems.
• Strong experience building and maintaining ETL/ELT pipelines in production environments on modern cloud data warehouses (e.g. Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, Redshift).
• Strong experience in data modeling, including analytics-ready schema design, fact/dimension modeling, and performance optimization, along with data testing and documentation practices that ensure long-term data quality, trust, and maintainability.
• Experience working with orchestrated data pipelines (e.g., Dagster, Airflow, or similar tools).
• Experience building backend or ingestion services using Python web frameworks such as Django, FastAPI, or Flask.
• Familiarity with background task processing and asynchronous workflows (e.g., Celery or similar systems).
• Experience working with cloud infrastructure, preferably AWS (e.g., S3, RDS/Aurora).
• Strong understanding of software design principles and data pipeline architecture.
• Experience working with large datasets using tools such as pandas, polars or NumPy.
• An analytical mindset with an interest in data quality, KPIs, and data-driven decision-making.
• Excellent communication skills—you can explain complex technical topics clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• High ownership mentality—you take responsibility for reliability, quality, and long-term maintainability.
• A collaborative, egoless team player who thrives in cross-functional environments.
• Fluent in English and comfortable participating in technical discussions.
• Based in or able to work within the European Time Zone (UTC+0 to UTC+2).
