Data Engineer
Groenlo, Netherlands
32 - 38 hrs
€ 4.500 - € 6.000
What are you going to do?
Every day, millions of access events are generated by our solutions: who accessed which location, when, and under what conditions. This data is highly sensitive and valuable. Today, it is primarily used for operational purposes.
We see a clear opportunity to unlock much more value from it. By building a secure, scalable and future-proof data platform, we enable analytics, insights and new data-driven product capabilities that strengthen our solutions and create additional value for our customers.
As a Data Engineer at Nedap in Security, you will play a key role in building this foundation. You will work hands-on on designing and implementing the platform, collaborating closely with product teams and architects to turn complex, high-volume data streams into reliable and reusable data products.
This is not an isolated effort. Together with data engineers in other business units, you will help build a shared data platform that forms the foundation for how data is used across Nedap. You won’t be maintaining legacy systems. You will be building the foundation for how Nedap works with data going forward.
