Responsibilities

Making Sense of Data

  • Develop a deep understanding of our data: where it comes from, what it represents, its limitations, and how it can be combined to answer new questions.
  • Design, build, and maintain pipelines that process large volumes of data efficiently and reliably.
  • Take ideas from exploration to production: prototype them on historical data, evaluate their quality, and build the pipelines needed to run them at scale.
  • Build datasets and features that can power product experiences, internal systems, analytics, and machine learning models.
  • Work with technologies such as Spark, DBT, Dagster, BigQuery, ClickHouse, DuckDB, or similar tools depending on the problem at hand.
  • Use data to investigate hypotheses, understand behaviors, and answer ambiguous questions.
  • Develop metrics and evaluation frameworks to understand whether the signals and features we build actually work.
  • Create analyses, dashboards, and visualizations that make complex datasets understandable and help the team make better decisions.
  • Build tooling that makes it easier to inspect individual examples, debug data pipelines, and understand why a system produces a particular result.
  • Work closely with engineers and product teams to identify opportunities where data can make our products smarter.
  • Use statistical methods, heuristics, experimentation, or machine learning depending on what is most appropriate for the problem.
  • Iterate on features and models based on real-world data and continuously improve their accuracy and reliability.
  • Help bridge the gap between exploratory data work and robust systems running in production.
  • Monitor data quality and proactively investigate unexpected changes or anomalies.
  • Stay up to date with developments in data engineering, analytics, and machine learning, and bring relevant ideas and technologies into our stack.

Requirements

  • Strong software engineering fundamentals and experience working with data-intensive systems.
  • Very comfortable with SQL and manipulating large datasets.
  • Experience with one or more modern data technologies such as Spark, DBT, Dagster, BigQuery, ClickHouse, DuckDB, or equivalent tools.

Preferred

  • Experience building data products or features directly used by consumer-facing products.
  • Experience working with high-volume event, behavioral, sensor, geospatial, or time-series data.
  • Familiarity with statistics, machine learning, or feature engineering.
  • Experience taking a data problem from an ambiguous question through exploration, prototyping, evaluation, and production.
  • Experience building internal tools or visualizations for exploring and debugging complex datasets.

Preferred Qualifications

Life at amo

  • To ensure that everyone is set up for success within our way of working, we work together onsite 5 days a week.
  • We wanted to make sure coming to the office was as comfortable as possible for you:
  • We chose a location in central Paris, near Opéra (Metro lines 3, 8, 9 and RER A).
  • We have a beautiful Parisian-style office with high ceilings, balconies, and huge windows. So a lot of natural light!
  • Because life outside of work should also be stress-free, we cover:
  • Health care (100% coverage).
  • Maternity Leave, Paternity Leave, Second Parent Leave (salary maintained at 100%).

Vacation days: 8–9 weeks (total) per year

5 weeks of paid time off;

1–2 additional weeks (RTT, based on our company contract);

~11 bank holidays.

We shut down entirely twice a year, two weeks in summer and one week in winter, to allow everyone to truly recharge and avoid prolonged slowdowns. These pauses are part of your total vacation time, giving everyone a real chance to unplug and recharge. No Slack, no email, no FOMO.

We love the diverse perspectives we get from having people from all over the world join us (68% of our team is international), and so we of course support relocation to Paris with:

Help and sponsored visa process.

1 month of Airbnb 100% covered by amo upon arrival.

Assistance from a trusted relocation agency to find your permanent home.

Help with French paperwork like opening a French social security account, tax forms, getting your carte vitale (free healthcare), and more.

French lessons to be fully set with your new Parisian life.
