Data EngineerData

We're based on over 15 years of success, producing world-class video content and building, developing, and managing a number of high-traffic websites. Our award-winning content and websites are created exclusively by us and directly for the use of millions of users worldwide. At Kodify, we're not just pushing boundaries in online entertainment—we're rewriting the script! Our goal is to empower our people with everything they need to pioneer innovation in our industry. Our culture is our secret sauce, and we're committed to preserving and enhancing it every step of the way.

Join our crew, where the Kodify team is not just an asset, it's our crown jewel. We prioritize their growth and well-being above all else, ensuring they're set up for success and always inspired to deliver their best work.

As a rapidly expanding company with diverse hubs across the globe and over 20 vibrant national cultures, working with us means embracing thrilling challenges tailor-made for a star Senior Data Engineer!

At Kodify, data is at the heart of how we make decisions. From product and marketing to finance and operations, every team relies on trustworthy data delivered at the right time. We're looking for a Senior Data Engineer to help us raise the bar — building the pipelines, models, and platforms that turn raw events into reliable insight at scale.

You'll help to evolve a data platform that supports products serving close to 100M unique visitors a month.
Design, build, and own robust data pipelines from source systems (Postgres, MongoDB, event streams, third-party APIs) into our warehouse.

From wherever you want, the position is fully remote in the EU.

We're very flexible about when you get your work done, but we do have some core hours where we like to overlap in order to promote collaboration and low-latency communication between team members (10:00 to 15:00 CET/CEST). Our daily virtual stand-ups are important for us but other than that, you're free to manage your own time.
