    Your role in the team

    • As Data Platform Lead, you will be the people manager of a small, senior team and the domain expert steering AMBOSS's end-to-end data platform strategy.
    • Beyond owning platform evolution and pipelines, you and your team also own the integration layer to our ERP and other core business systems.
    • On top of that, you build small services and internal tools that solve specific business and operations problems.
    • One current example is our master data management service for medical institutions around the world, which powers B2B commercial work and product experience.
    • Communication with stakeholders across Commercial, Product, Finance, Operations and Medical is constant.
    • Engineering excellence still matters, but coordination, prioritization, fast judgement calls and a strong hands-on mentality matter at least as much.
