Hi, we're u2i! We never wanted to work at a faceless outsourcing company, anonymously going through a daily list of tasks before home time. So we set up u2i to be the complete opposite.

Job description
Online interview
As a Data Quality Engineer @u2i you will:
- partner with a 20+ people development team (operating in a “hives model”) working directly with one of our overseas Clients, to build a big data product around social media platforms and measurement.
- use the existing quality tooling on a daily basis, as well as create new software to extend and improve upon the suite of automated tests.
- coordinate the weekly releases to make sure that they don’t generate any unexpected data, cause data loss, or other deterioration in function. We’re not fans of surprises when it comes to releases, so should such an event occur, you’ll be the one to investigate what caused it in the first place.
- help define and execute validation for new data added to the platform
- work directly with Przemek, one of the Tech Leads on the project, Michał, Project Architect and the Client, to shape and implement a strategic vision of how Quality is lived and breathed within the Project
- step into a role which you will shape - and this isn’t an empty promise. There are challenges for every level of engineering expertise in the role: designing new tools, areas of automation testing, working with architecture, just to name a few. The position has no real precedent in our company so your vision for growth will be crucial to each iteration - we don’t want to be right, we want to get it right for you to flourish.
We might be a great match for each other if you are:
- an engineer at heart
- a testing/quality-first approach kind of folk
- aware that your strengths also lie in your interpersonal skills
We might also be a great match for each other if you have:
- at least 0.5+ years of commercial experience in the IT industry (in such roles as a software engineering intern, software engineer, tester, quality assurance specialist, just to name a few)
- very good command of English (B2/C1) and feel comfortable using it on a daily basis
- decent knowledge of Python or any other programming language used in web development, and you’re eager to develop your skills in new technologies,
- an ability to drive processes independently; taking ownership comes naturally to you
- a knack for problem-solving - you’re on a constant search of “the why” of things and decisions, and you’re always eager to improve things and advocate for quality
- proved yourself to be an effective and articulate communicator, able to get your point across
- a proactive attitude - you’re happy to go the extra mile when an opportunity to make things a bit better comes your way. You’re disruptive of the status quo and are known for your “can do/let’s do” attitude
- the consultative gene - you ask the right questions, know how to build trust and credibility, and enjoy sharing your knowledge and guiding others
- some experience in working within a team and are great to collaborate with
- an open and curious mind - you’re willing to experiment and see opportunities where others don’t
- a desire to learn new things
- some experience with agile methodologies in the end to end test cycle
It would also be great if you:
- have a degree in IT/Computer Science (or you’re at least a 3rd-year student of these majors) or a related discipline
- have had the opportunity to work directly with a client
- are experienced in creating data validation tools
- have maintained data quality platforms before
- have previous working experience with a big amount of data
- are familiar with SQL and relational database concepts
- have experience developing data quality frameworks in Python and SQL
What you also might like to know is that:
We’re an employee-empowered company. This means that you will have an actual impact on the company’s actions and a share in its profits. Also, we have incorporated many elements of a flat structure, so you won’t have to work around any communication barriers. And finally, we believe that autonomy is the springboard for awesome ideas, so we’ll give you the tools and independence to experiment and own your initiatives.
