Full job details
Build the data platform behind millions of workouts
You don’t want to just build pipelines.
You want your work to be used, trusted, and visible.
You want to see decisions being made because of what you built.
At Basic-Fit, your data solutions support millions of members across Europe. What you design today will be used tomorrow by teams in operations, marketing, finance, and beyond.
This Is What Your Role Looks Like
You’ll join the central Data Platform Team, working on the foundation of Basic-Fit’s data landscape.
In a typical week, you might:
- build batch and streaming pipelines in Databricks
- continuously improving Databricks, keeping up with the latest technologies
- collaborate with analysts to improve self-service reporting
- automate day-to-day work by leveraging the power of AI
- migrate legacy pipelines to a modern Databricks platform
- optimize performance, cost, governance, and reliability
- support designing data models that are directly consumed in Power BI
Where you can make an impact
This is not a “keep-the-lights-on” role. You’ll actively shape:
- scalable data architecture (Lakeflow Connect, Databricks Apps etc.)
- AI and automation to improve data quality and usability
- self-service analytics across the business
- the future direction of our data platform
Good ideas don’t stay in slide decks here - they get built.
The team you’ll work with
You’ll be part of a multidisciplinary Data Platform Team with:
- Data Platform Engineers
- Analysts
- BI Developers
- Data Scientists
Together, you support almost every department at Basic-Fit, enabling teams to act on reliable, well-governed data.
Who Are You?
You don’t need to tick every box. You will thrive here if most of this sounds familiar:
- Hands-on experience with Databricks (around 1+ year)
- Curiosity about newest Databricks features (dashboards, apps etc.)
- Understanding of batch vs. streaming data processing
- Strong skills in SQL, PySpark, and Python
- Experience building data pipelines (e.g. with Azure Data Factory)
- Awareness of data quality, governance, and scalability
- Experience and curiosity towards AI and building agents
- Comfortable communicating in English
- Experience with PowerBI or any other reporting tool is a plus
