Are you ready to help shape the future of European e-mobility? Then chargecloud is the right place for you! Since our founding in 2016, we have been supporting companies of all sizes in operating their charging infrastructure.

Responsibilities

• Own and evolve the data architecture across the Data & Intelligence cluster, and build the pipelines that ingest, enrich, and process charging, POI, traffic, and market data in batch and streaming (Spark, Kafka, Debezium).
• Perform complex data analysis and turn the results into clear recommendations for internal stakeholders and customers.
• Research, build, and evaluate forecasting models for charge point and site utilization, using backtesting, error metrics, and drift monitoring.
• Develop smart pricing approaches based on market data, forecasts, and events, and simulate them before live rollout.
• Make and document architectural and modeling decisions, and communicate trade-offs clearly to engineers and non-technical stakeholders.
• Teach and train engineers and analysts in data engineering, analysis, and forecasting methods, through workshops, pair programming, design reviews, and code-quality feedback.
• Drive AWS and Databricks infrastructure decisions relevant to data delivery, including pipelines and cloud cost awareness.
• Identify and introduce AI tooling that improves analysis, development productivity, and data quality.

Requirements

• Already working at Staff Engineer level (or equivalent), with technical leadership demonstrated across teams, and you combine strong engineering depth with analytical rigor.
• Strong experience with Python and Spark at production scale, and with relational and NoSQL databases and modern table formats such as Delta Lake, Iceberg, or Parquet.
• Perform complex data analysis and research forecasting models, and evaluate them rigorously rather than trusting the output.
• Have designed batch and streaming architectures, ideally with Kafka, RabbitMQ, or CDC tools such as Debezium, including delivery semantics and schema evolution.
• Strong experience with AWS and understand how cloud infrastructure affects data delivery. Kubernetes and Dagster are a plus.
• AI-keen and actively explore and apply AI tools and techniques in your daily work.
• Communicate proactively and clearly, in writing and in conversation, and help teams find a shared direction.
• Experience with e-mobility, energy, or mobility data is a plus.
• Fluent in English; German is a plus.
