Contract Type: Full-Time Employment (Permanent)
Target Group: Backend Engineers, Data Engineers, Database Administrators, Opportunity Card Holders, and Master's Graduates
About Project IRIS Project IRIS is a proprietary applied research initiative processing massive amounts of infrastructure and spatial data.

- ETL Engineering: Program high-performance ETL pipelines that decompress, parse, and transfer complex archives into our central PostgreSQL architecture.
- Database Governance: Ensure idempotency, deduplication, and reliable monitoring during weekly multi-million row updates.
- Container Orchestration: Deploy and maintain isolated Docker environments for all ingestion tasks.
What We Are Looking For
- Technical Background: Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or extensive practical backend industry experience.
- Core Technical Skills: Expertise in processing relational mass data, strong Python skills (SQLAlchemy, Pandas), and deep PostgreSQL performance tuning.
- Mindset: A clean-code engineering approach focused on system stability and scalability.
- Eligibility: Open to local applicants and international candidates (Chancenkarte / Opportunity Card supported).
- Languages: Professional working proficiency in English (required); German language skills are a plus.
What We Offer
- Full-Time Permanent Employment: Long-term career stability with clear growth trajectories.
- Dual Master / Trainee Track Available: Tailored tracks including academic coordination and complete tuition support.
- Accommodation & Onboarding Package: Structured assistance with local accommodation, official registration, and comprehensive onboarding.
- Visa & Administrative Backing: Dedicated employer support for Opportunity Card conversions and visa applications.
- Modern Tech Environment: Work in a high-efficiency environment centered on Python, PostGIS, and Docker.
