Scope of Services

As a Data Engineer at Flix, you can make an impact by building the data pipelines and products that power marketing budget decisions for one of Europe's fastest-growing mobility platforms and contributing to team’s expansion into marketing attribution.

  • Collaborate with the Product Owner and team to understand marketing stakeholders' data needs and translate them into technical solutions

  • Solid experience with Python, CI/CD, Terraform, SQL, relational databases, and Git
  • Familiar with ETL orchestration tools such as Airflow
  • Naturally curious - comfortable digging into data independently to find the root cause, framing questions about data and developing deep domain expertise over time
  • Communicates well and works effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders; fluent in English
  • Preferred: experience with AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, or foundational marketing knowledge

Callibration model

  • Cooperation based on a service agreement (B2B/freelance contract), not an employment contract
  • You will operate as an independent contractor, responsible for delivering agreed services and submitting invoices
  • Location: open for contractors based in Poland
