Your daily pitch
 

As a Team Lead Data (m/f/x) is the tactical captain of the CRM field — driving innovation, streamlining operations, and turning new developments from the CRM Project Enablement Managers into winning, scalable solutions. Leveraging top-tier tech like DBT and Airflow, you’ll automate and integrate CRM operations into one powerful game plan. With a sharp eye for observability, governance, scalability, and automation, you’ll ensure the team stays ahead of the game — boosting efficiency, performance, and ROI with every play.
 

Your playing field

• Lead and coach a team of CRM Platform Engineers, keeping performance and collaboration at the top of their game.
• Work closely with teams across Data Warehousing, Data Science, Business Intelligence, and CRM to ensure seamless project delivery and precision execution.
• Oversee, scale, and maintain AWS services to keep systems running smoothly and efficiently.
• Review, refine, and productionize new developments, ensuring they’re ready to perform at the highest level.
• Create and maintain clear, up-to-date documentation — including SOPs and SLAs — so the entire team can stay aligned and play by the same game plan.

Which skills should you bring to the pitch

• Qualification. Bachelor’s or master’s degree in Data Engineering or a related field, with experience in the gaming industry as a definite plus.
• Expertise. You bring 4+ years of experience and strong expertise in AWS data services (S3, Athena, EC2, Redshift, EMR, Batch, Lambda) and ELT development using DBT and Airflow. Advanced skills in Python and SQL, with solid knowledge of data warehousing and Kimball Dimensional Modelling. Comfortable working with modern containerization and orchestration tools like Docker and Kubernetes.
• Born Leader. A confident leader who inspires technical teams, turning complex data challenges into streamlined, high-impact solutions.
• Language.  You’ll need full fluency in English. German skills would be great too, since we’re the #1 Sports Betting company in Germany, but it’s not required.

What we offer:

• Established International Group. We have a solid foundation on which to grow.
• Personal and Professional Growth. We offer you opportunities to develop and grow to unlock your potential.

  as a team but we also give importance to the uniqueness of each and every one of us.
