With a team of 500+ professionals across multiple countries, we are scaling globally to support travellers with seamless, unlimited data connectivity.

We’re not just connecting people—we’re enabling freedom and peace of mind, ensuring our users stay connected from the second they land, wherever their journey takes them.

The Role

As our Data Engineer, you will build and scale the high-performance pipelines and data services that turn raw connectivity data into actionable intelligence. Your work directly enables our leadership and product teams to make real-time, data-driven decisions that fuel our international growth.

  • Develop and maintain high-performance APIs using FastAPI to expose data insights to internal services and stakeholders.

  • Lead data transformations by using DBT to ensure our warehouse is structured, modular, and ready for high-level analysis.

  • Optimise data structures and schemas to ensure lightning-fast query performance for analytical and operational use cases.

  • Automate data validation and cleansing processes to guarantee the highest standards of data integrity and security.

  • Drive technical innovation by implementing modern frameworks that enhance our processing capabilities and data reliability.

Qualifications

  • Proven track record in Data Engineering or a similar back-end heavy role within high-growth environments.

  • Advanced proficiency in Python, with specific experience building and deploying APIs using FastAPI.

  • Deep expertise in DBT, with a focus on building scalable and maintainable transformation layers.

  • Strong mastery of SQL for building complex data software and manipulating large datasets.

  • Solid understanding of modern data modelling and cloud-based warehousing architecture (GCP and BigQuery preferred).

Nice to Have

  • Experience with Google Dataflow or Apache Beam.

  • Background in Infrastructure as Code (IaC) or CI/CD for data workflows.

  • 5% pension contribution

  • € 3000 for Medical/Health coverage

  • Self development budget of $ 500

Prepare your application

Use the description above to assess your fit for Holafly. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.

Match requirements to evidence

Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.

Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.

Check the working arrangement

Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.

Review before submitting

Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.

Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.

Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
