Big Data Software Engineer

Are you the brightest Java Software Engineer you can think of? At Webfleet Solutions, we are looking for Versatile Software Engineers (Based in Barcelona, Spain) with solid foundations in one or more of the technologies of our stack (Databricks, Spark, Python, Java / JEE) and a lot of drive and mental flexibility to learn a lot about the rest of it to join our new team in Amsterdam.

If you think of yourself as “T-Shaped” or consider becoming it, you have the profile and personality that we are looking for! Be part of an agile cross-functional team that works on data products and solutions, APIs, integrations with back-office systems and customer backends. The code base consists mainly of Python and Java and will be operated in a cloud environment such as MS Azure.

Here's a little taste of your challenge :

• Create solution designs and deliver complete sets of functionalities from backend to frontend. The key technical focus of the role will be more on the backend but depending on project requirements you may also step into other technical areas.
• Work in a technically complex and sensitive environment, which will require you to build relevant functional knowledge about the products, technical knowledge about the platform’s stack and architecture.
• Keep a keen eye on application performance, operability, robustness, monitoring, failure resilience, data privacy, and the security of individual services and the whole system.
• Agree on the technical implementation with involved component owners and estimate its work effort.
• Implement, test, and demonstrate new product features in an agile process.
• Develop complete sets of functionalities including the backend and user interfaces.
• Work on further usability, performance improvements, or quality assurance, including bug fixes and test automation.

What do we expect from you?

To make a successful start in the Webfleet Solutions product engineering organization, it will definitely help if you have a passion for software engineering, building products, and tweaking systems. The most important qualification that will make you successful in the longer term is to have a “getting things done” attitude. No matter whether it is to implement a new feature, fix a bug in production, extract some data and deliver it to customer support, change system configurations, or solve problems together with 3rd parties and system partners, you tackle the problem and resolve it. Also, it will be of great help if you have as many as possible of the below :

• Fluency in English (written and spoken).
• A degree in computer science, a related field, or equivalent experience.
• Hands-on experience with big data processing and orchestration tools such as Azure Data Factory (ADF), and distributed data processing platforms like Databricks and Spark, with the ability to optimize complex data pipelines for performance, scalability, and resilience.
• Understanding of ETL, Delta Lake, distributed systems, and enterprise integration patterns.
• A desire to work as part of an international organization and cooperate with other software engineers, system engineers, architects, product owners, and external partners across multiple locations.
• Great communication skills, holistic and systemic thinking, goal-orientation, quality-focus, versatile problem-solving skills, an open mind, as well as at least 6 years of experience in commercial software development.
