You are able to architect creative solutions using cloud components regardless of their nature (functions, databases, services, IoT, repositories, …) and orchestrate them (Airflow, Data Factory, …)
You are familiar with software development practices, e.g. version control and CI/CD.
Great analytical mindset with excellent communication skills
Fluency in English and in one of the native languages: Dutch or French. Unfortunately this is one of our requirements which we can't make any exceptions for.
