We are supporting a Zurich based organization that is investing significantly in the modernisation of its data architecture and platforms.

Designing data platform and persistence strategies covering relational, document/JSON, graph and vector databases

Contributing to modern Data Warehouse, Data Lake and Lakehouse architectures

Establishing and improving Data Governance, including metadata management, data quality, classification, ownership and approval processes

Designing modern data pipelines and integration solutions using technologies and approaches such as ETL/ELT, Kafka, CDC and Apache NiFi

Creating the architectural foundations required for Business Intelligence, advanced analytics, AI and Machine Learning

Advising technical teams, application owners and business stakeholders on modern data and integration solutions

A degree in Computer Science, Business Informatics or a comparable technical discipline

Strong experience in information architecture and data modelling

Solid relational database expertise, ideally including Oracle, SQL, DDL and PL/SQL

Experience with additional persistence technologies such as document/JSON, graph and/or vector databases

Knowledge of modern Data Warehouse / Data Lake / Lakehouse architectures, ideally involving technologies such as Spark, Databricks or similar

Practical understanding of ETL/ELT and data pipeline engineering, with technologies such as Apache NiFi and/or Informatica

Experience with Kafka and event-driven integration patterns, including areas such as CDC and Schema Registry

Good knowledge of Data Governance, metadata management, data catalogues, classification and data quality

An interest in – and ideally some practical exposure to – AI / Generative AI within modern data environments

Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively with both technical specialists and senior stakeholders

Fluent German and English are required.

Why Join?

This is an opportunity to work within an environment where technology plays a fundamental role in supporting innovation and long-term development.

You can expect:

A senior role with real architectural influence and ownership

The opportunity to help shape a major modernisation of the organisation's data landscape

Exposure to event-driven architecture, modern data platforms and integration technologies

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.
