At Smart, our mission is to transform retirement, savings and financial wellbeing, across all generations, around the world.
The Role
As part of the Backend Engineering function, and reporting to the Data Engineering Tech Lead, the Data Engineer will be working on planning, engineering and maintaining clients’ data warehouses, ETL processes and other data pipelines. As Smart’s client base grows we will be delivering data pipelines for each client who requires it.

About you
As a Data Engineer you’ll get a kick out of interacting with data in all its forms. More importantly, you get excited by the prospect of using data to solve problems. If you can use your skills to solve a business problem, that’s a great day’s work for you.
You will need to have strong skills in database technologies as well as Python. You’ll also be able to talk to techies and non-techies alike and make suggestions about solutions to problems that can be understood and implemented.
Smart strives to provide a comfortable, relaxed working environment and the Data Engineering team is no different. We take great pride in our work and strive to hit sometimes challenging deadlines, but we like to make sure that people are enjoying their work as we do it. This is not an easy balance to strike but being open and honest with each other is an important step in the right direction.
