Senior Data Engineer, Portugal

Zego, Portugal

What you need

Experience: 4+ years as a Data Engineer working on scalable data platforms, ideally in product-led or high-growth environments.
Solid experience designing, building, and operating ETL/ELT pipelines and large-scale data architectures.
Hands-on experience with modern data stacks — our tech includes Python, SQL, Snowflake, Apache Iceberg, AWS S3, PostgresDB, Airflow, dbt, and Apache Spark, deployed via AWS, Docker, and Terraform (experience with similar technologies is essential).
Ability to work effectively with cross-functional stakeholders, translating technical concepts into business value.
Experience supporting other engineers through code reviews, pairing, and knowledge sharing.
Pragmatic approach to balancing technical excellence with delivery needs.
You work AI-first. You will use AI daily here, and we mean daily. You do not need to arrive an expert, but you do need to arrive curious, experiment fast, and take ownership of getting good quickly. People who wait to be trained will find this uncomfortable.
