WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
Within the Analytics Engineering team, we are looking for like-minded people that we would like to work with. We are not looking for a specific type of professional. We all come from very different cultural and educational backgrounds. We love this diversity, and have built an inclusive culture around it. We do not judge, instead, we care about and support each other. We share a genuine curiosity about what we do, and together we get better at it every day. We look for people with this mindset before anything else. What we value the most is your curiosity and willingness to learn.
The Cross-Skilling program is for candidates with data experience seeking to accelerate their technical prowess and focus on data. You will learn from seasoned colleagues and boost your career! Do you have hands-on experience with data, but want to grow into an Analytics Engineer by expanding your technical skills or expanding your knowledge? Then this program is for you!
The program commences in September 2025, starting with a month of training conducted by our colleagues, designed to level up your technical skills. Following this, you’ll immediately embark on client projects with the support of the Xebia Data team!
