Tech Stack
About the role
- Join us as Lead Risk & Compliance Engineer to lead a team of 4 data engineers
- Work closely with Gauthier Marquand, Head of Risk Analytics Model Governance
- Reduce data errors and late delivery by deploying Claude Code for SQL generation and review
- Stand up team management from Day 1: implement ticket dispatch, run 1:1s, track performance KPIs
- Build and ship data models in DBT to production — owning end-to-end delivery of reporting and risk indicators
- Document everything: within 6 months, all reporting and tools have an audit trail
Requirements
- Advanced SQL + DBT in production: you write and debug complex queries, build DBT models with lineage and tests, and ship them to prod — not just locally
- Team management (1 year min.): you've run a small technical team, tracked performance, and led by example — technical profile strongly preferred over pure manager
- Rigor & AI fluency: compliance data errors have consequences — you have processes to catch them, and you're genuinely excited about what Claude Code can do for your team
- Curiosity: you learn unfamiliar data models fast and never stop asking why
- Languages: English mandatory; French strongly preferred
Benefits
- A team that ships like a tech team: DBT in production, end-to-end ownership, no hand-offs
- AI already in the stack: Claude Code is live for SQL generation — your job is to scale that adoption across the team and the broader RC department
- A blank-slate operational challenge: no dispatch process, no continuous improvement loop yet — you'll build it from scratch
- Cross-market data diversity: transactional, customer, regulatory, product usage — across all Qonto markets, with direct visibility at governance committee level
