Job description

We bet we can be a great match

 When we say cutting edge, we actually mean it. Our Datawarehouse holds 21 terabytes, and we upload 25 gigabytes of data a day.  Here, you can work on highly reliable systems with low latency, much like the transactional systems of the best financial institutions, but… with fun included.

Impressed? You can be sure there are many more challenges waiting for you.
