About the Position

Head of Data Engineering & Analytics - Fintech Engineering (M/F/N)

Contract

---

Own the data foundation that every financial decision at InPost Pay will stand on.

We are building a scale-up inside InPost, and AI will flow through all of it. You would lead the engine room: from the first raw event to the feature that powers a decision to the report a board reads. You'd be a key member of the Data & AI leadership team, reporting to the Director of Data & AI, with the InPost executive team behind the build. Our word is extreme ownership.

Responsibilities

• Build a data platform that works as a business asset, not a cost centre.
• Feature store and lakehouse on Databricks, with point-in-time correctness, freshness guarantees and full lineage.
• Data quality by default. Freshness, completeness and drift are monitored, and engineers are held to the standards you set.
• Analytics that move money. Portfolio performance and unit economics become decision-ready numbers, together with Credit Risk and Data Product.
• Agent-first pipelines. Agents are production components, with guardrails, evals and observability, and you control their cost and latency.
• Governance as a speed advantage. GDPR-aware by design, audit-ready, and fast to ship.

Requirements

• Someone with 7+ years of experience as a Data Engineer and/or Architect and 3+ years leading data engineering or analytics engineering teams.
• A leader who loves data and loves building systems around it.
• Hands-on when needed, especially with AI on board. You understand every layer, from ingestion to serving.
• Proven in lakehouse and feature-store architecture at function scale.
• Experienced in data-quality, observability and lineage frameworks across a multi-team estate.
• Experienced in people management across Staff, Senior and Mid levels, plus budget and roadmap planning.
• Already building agentic systems in production.
• Fluent in English (B2+).

Nice to Have

• Fintech regulation awareness (CCD2, PSD2, DORA)
• Credit-risk or underwriting data
• Streaming/CDC
• Scaling a data function through rapid growth
• Vendor negotiation experience

We Offer

• Seat at the table on a core leadership team.
• Greenfield with a real mandate. You set the architecture, the bar and the team.
• A modern stack. Databricks lakehouse from day one.
• Real pace. A lean, AI-native organisation.
• We offer a B2B Contract
