Cloud native data engineer

We are one of the top names in the IT world and focus on optimizing our customers’ core business processes. By intelligently using tailor-made IT solutions, we help our customers get the most out of their business and current technologies. But we achieve success through one thing above all: the people at adesso! They bring ideas, professional expertise, and technologies together. Together, we are programming (your) future at adesso.

• You design and implement robust data pipelines, data ingestion, and data processing based on open-source components such as Apache Airflow, Kafka, Spark, or Trino, and ensure that data flows reliably, efficiently, and transparently.
• You develop container-based analytics platforms and design efficient CI/CD pipelines based on Kubernetes, ensuring that new features and changes reach production safely and automatically.
• You are responsible for the automated deployment of analytics platforms—for example, using Helm charts and tools such as ArgoCD—and ensure that deployments are reproducible and stable.
• You integrate data platforms into existing customer environments, including IAM, monitoring, and logging, and thereby actively contribute to the stability, security, and transparency of the solutions.
• Together with our customers, you understand business requirements and implement them using open-source analytics services based on Kubernetes, with the goal of supporting our customers holistically on their journey toward data sovereignty.
• You continuously update your knowledge in cloud, data, and software engineering, try out new technologies, and share your experience with the team and customers—for example, in projects, communities, or internal events.

• You have completed a degree (or an equivalent qualification) and already have hands-on experience with components such as Spark, Kafka, Airflow, or similar technologies—ideally in projects close to production.
• You have practical experience with Kubernetes (e.g., deployment and service definitions, handling secrets, and Helm charts) and enjoy building containerized applications and platforms.
• You have solid programming skills in Java, Scala, or Python and have worked with build and CI/CD tools such as Maven, sbt, Gradle, Git, or similar tools.
• You understand concepts such as IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS, and have initial experience with infrastructure-as-code approaches (e.g., Terraform, Ansible, or Puppet) to build infrastructure that is reproducible and versionable.
• You enjoy understanding complex data landscapes, trying out new technologies in the data and analytics field, and helping shape solutions end to end.
• You confidently use AI tools in your field, critically evaluate their results, and support customers and adessi in making use of AI’s potential.
• Your very good German and good English skills enable you to communicate confidently.

• You will feel at home with us! We are collegial, close-knit, and treat each other as equals—we value open exchange, team spirit, and mutual respect.
