Senior Data Platform Engineer

Omniva connects people, businesses, and communities across the Baltics and beyond. We’ve grown from Estonia’s trusted postal service into a modern, technology-driven logistics company supporting the growth of e-commerce and global trade. Every day, we help our customers send, receive, and grow — with care, precision, and reliability. Our people are at the heart of everything we do: caring, open, and driven to deliver experiences that feel personal and effortless. At Omniva, every delivery carries possibility — and every team member helps make that happen. About The Role We're looking for a Senior Data Platform Engineer to join our Data Engineering team and contribute to the design and implementation of an entirely new data platform in the cloud. In this role, you'll own the frameworks, tooling, and delivery infrastructure underneath our data pipelines, spanning shared Python libraries, orchestration, CI/CD, and the transformation layer that turns raw operational data into reliable, well-governed data the business runs on. You'll set the standard for how software gets written here, and much of what you build will outlast any single project, so we care a great deal about code that is tested, documented, and maintainable by people other than its author. You'll work closely with a compact team of experienced engineers who know the data and the business deeply, and who are looking for a peer to build alongside. This is an opportunity to be part of Omniva’s transformation, helping shape the future of logistics and technology across the Baltics and beyond.
