Data Engineer ​/ Data Scientist

• Drive the end-to-end development and maintenance of our footfall data products.
• Design, build, and improve scalable data pipelines for ingesting, transforming, and processing large datasets.
• Work on data product design, evaluating methodologies, data quality, and analytical approaches to improve our products.
• Analyze complex technical problems and develop efficient, maintainable solutions.
• Identify opportunities to automate manual workflows and improve existing processes.
• Ensure data processing workflows are reliable through testing, monitoring, logging, and error handling.
• Build reproducible data processing systems with clear documentation and data lineage.

• A solid foundation in Computer Science through a degree or equivalent hands-on experience.
• Strong Python skills, with excellent knowledge of pandas and writing clean, efficient, and maintainable code.
• A deep understanding of algorithms, data structures, computational complexity, and performance optimization.
• The ability to think critically about large-scale data processing, selecting the right tools and algorithms for datasets of varying sizes and computational constraints.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with an eye for detail and quality.
• The confidence to take ownership, work independently, and drive complex technical projects from idea to implementation.
• Bonus points if you also have experience working with geospatial data or GIS tools such as QGIS or ArcGIS, experience with distributed data processing frameworks - Dask experience is particularly valuable, experience building and maintaining production-grade data pipelines, familiarity with SQL and No
  
  SQL databases, and exposure to cloud infrastructure and modern data engineering best practices.
