• Enhancing and expanding the existing digital toolchain based on evolving business needs.
• Gathering requirements directly from project leaders and translating them into prototypes and working solutions.
• Designing, testing, and validating solutions before deployment.
• Supporting the implementation of digital solutions that comply with GDPR and the EU AI Act.
• Building the technological foundation for future analytics and AI-driven solutions.

• Have business-fluent English language skills.
• Demonstrate structured thinking, strong problem-solving skills, and a proactive mindset.
• Are willing to work in a hybrid setup (3 days office / 2 days home office per week).

It is a plus if you have:

• Understanding of project and portfolio management processes, including planning, resource management, and budget control.
• Experience building data models or data pipelines for analytics or AI use cases.
• Understanding of GDPR requirements when designing systems and data flows.
• Experience working in international or cross-functional environments.
