A day in the life of a Data Engineer at SumUp
A
normal day in a data engineer’s life at Sumup is full of challenging
and exciting tasks. Let it start with a warm cup of coffee, be social
with colleagues before digging in, or check emails and notifications for
the status of ETL jobs and data flows. Solving complex data problems is
by nature at the heart of our job. Facing compound business logic when
adjusting a measure in an OLAP cube? Search confluence pages or just
talk to analysts/operations to solve the puzzle fast. How to improve
query performance? How can we synchronize databases in real-time? Strong
DevOps skills are always handy, allow you to move fast, and if you get
stuck, at Sumup there are always strong sysadmins around the globe
willing to give you a hand. You, like the rest of the team, can have a
huge impact on the whole company. Adding new data to analytical models
or the data platform, optimizing data flows to our CRM system just by 1
minute, – so that we can reach our merchants immediately after her
single transaction fails and provide help. Be part of the leading
payment provider which offers experience like no other on the market.
To
support and grow our merchant base, we also participate in data science
and innovation projects, our latest effort here is natural language
processing used to classify user generated messages in order to reduce
the workload of our support agents. It is the world of data, we have
plenty of it and we want to tap into it more and more! What distributed
database to use for BI, what infrastructure is powerful and efficient
for development and data science – you will have your voice here.
When
you work as a data engineer at SumUp, you are relevant. The decisions
you take have direct effect on business. The flat organizational
structure, collaboration in autonomous squads empower and enable experts
for great achievements and personal development. We don’t embrace
micro-management, but trust our experts to make their own decisions.
Learning, experimentation, trial and errors are encouraged and part of
everyday life.

do a lot on AWS, using Docker, Kubernetes, Postgres and Redshift. If
you can build robust data pipelines with Python, have deep expertise
with relational databases such as Postgres, experience in the

communicative, or if you are simply the smart creative type that wants
to become all that and believe you have all it takes - then we will be
happy to invite you to explore SumUp :-)
