When human abilities such as problem-solving, creative thinking and relationship building are enhanced with technology... magical moments happen.

The work

  • At Glia, the data team (named Cerebro) is at the heart of all things data. You will be working with the team on establishing data contracts, designing ingestion pipelines- and optimal warehousing solutions
  • Participating in hands-on (systems design, PR reviews, smaller implementations) work within the team
  • Leading an established team of (currently) 6 engineers, partnering with the PM and other product teams, analysts and stakeholders to bring business-critical data solutions to life
  • Own the vision and direction for Glia’s data architecture built on Snowflake, Redshift, Druid, S3 and dbt
  • Leading strategic long-term initiatives and owning architectural roadmaps
  • Actively supporting the growth of your team members
  • Leading operational readiness improvements (observability, incident playbooks, tooling) within the team

The team’s setup

Team Cerebro is a dynamic cross-functional team that brings together skilled Engineers and product Managers and collaborates closely with Data Analysts to drive innovation and deliver high-impact solutions.
We have members in Tallinn and Tartu, Estonia, Poland, and Portugal, so our processes are optimized for remote collaboration.

  • Proactive, collaborative, open-minded and solution-oriented
  • Production-first mentality

  • Proficiency in either Redshift, Snowflake, dbt, Druid, Kafka or equivalent big data tech. (It's way more about the concepts you're confident in than the specific tech stack experience you have)
