DEPT® is a Growth Invention company built to help the world’s most ambitious brands grow faster.

ABOUT THE TRAINEESHIP

The Data Engineering Traineeship is a four-month, on-the-job program You join our Data Engineering team on day one and work on real client projects within your first weeks. Three things shape your four months:

  • Real client work from the start. You'll contribute to live projects for brands such as Philips, Foot Locker, Nikon and Rituals, taking on more ownership each month. By month four you'll be working much like a junior data engineer.
  • Masterclasses. A light, applied curriculum run by our engineers. Practical sessions on the tools and patterns we use with clients, not a repeat of university theory.
  • A named buddy. A senior engineer who plans your week with you, reviews your work and is accountable for your progress.

You'll join the Data Engineering team in our EMEA Data & AI craft, working from Budapest, where our lead and senior data engineer are based. We design and build scalable, reliable data platforms and pipelines for enterprise clients across Europe, and work closely with our analytics, data science and AI teams on integrated solutions. You'll write real code that runs in client environments, with experienced engineers reviewing it and helping you grow.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Build and maintain data pipelines that ingest, transform and model client data, with guidance from senior engineers
  • Write clean, tested SQL and Python
  • Develop data models in cloud data warehouses such as BigQuery or Snowflake, using tools like dbt
  • Help orchestrate and monitor workflows with tools such as Airflow
  • Add data quality checks, tests and documentation so that others can trust and reuse your work
  • Work in a team setup with Git, code reviews and CI/CD
  • Explain what you've built to colleagues and clients

WHAT YOU BRING

  • A degree in computer science, data science, engineering, mathematics or a related field, or you'll complete one before February 2027
  • Some work experience in data, software or analytics engineering: a student job, an internship or up to around one year full-time
  • Good SQL and working Python
  • An understanding of data modeling basics and ETL/ELT concepts
  • Exposure to at least one cloud platform (GCP, AWS or Azure), from work, coursework or your own projects
  • Familiarity with Git
  • Clear written and spoken English, and the ability to explain technical work in plain language

  • Hands-on experience with dbt, Airflow or Spark
  • Familiarity with Docker or CI/CD pipelines
  • Comfort working in a macOS environment
  • A cloud certification
  • Projects you can show us, such as a GitHub repository
  • preferable agency background

WE OFFER

  • A paid four-month traineeship
  • Masterclasses and a dedicated senior buddy
  • Real work for global brands from your first weeks
  • Hybrid working policy
  • A reputation for doing good. DEPT® has been a Certified B Corp® since 2021.
  • Awesome clients. Whether big, small, local or global — at DEPT® you’ll get the opportunity to work with all of them. And we celebrate all of our successes together!
  • The opportunity for possibility. We want to enable you to do what you do best and help you develop your skills further with training, development and certifications.
  • Global annual DEPT® Cares Month in which employees come together and donate their skills to support local charities.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
