You will work at the crossroads of data, software engineering and infrastructure, in a senior team where everyone has a direct impact.

As a Senior Data Platform Engineer, your mission will be to:

  • Design and improve the tools and platforms that empower engineering teams to build and run their own data pipelines
  • Ship AI tooling (Skills, MCP) as part of the platform, to help teams design, build and run their data products
  • Contribute to our batch processing (Airflow, dbt) and event-driven architecture (Kafka)
  • Define, document and promote standards and best practices
  • Help teams adopt our tools and practices, and grow their skills
  • Evangelize the platform vision and build relays across teams, in France and Brazil
  •  

    It will be a perfect match if you:

  • Have solid experience in data engineering or platform engineering, with a good software engineering culture
  • Have strong expertise in one area (data, infrastructure, software, EDA/streaming, developer tooling) and are curious to learn the others
  • Have worked with some of these: Python, Ruby, Airflow, Kafka, Snowflake, dbt, Terraform
  • Are autonomous, communicate clearly, and enjoy collaborating with and supporting other teams
  • Are curious about new tools and practices, including AI (no expertise required)
  • Speak good English (we work daily with our teams in Brazil)
  • You are a future responsible swiler: you share our commitment to the environment, diversity, fairness and inclusion and are prepared to work every day to improve individual and collective performance.
  • One thing worth to be mentioned

    We welcome people from entrepreneurial backgrounds as well as from established organizations. A platform, infrastructure or software background is just as relevant as a pure data engineering one. At Swile, we believe that delivering impactful products requires engineers to understand the needs of users and clients as well as the code itself.
