You bring the curiosity and the willingness to make a call. We’ll bring the flexibility.<\/strong><\/p>

i-spark is small on purpose, partly because we like it that way, and partly because it lets us be the kind of place we set out to build. It leaves room to know the people around you, to do your work properly, and to have a real say in how your week goes.<\/p>

You would be joining a team that cares about the work and about each other, and we would be glad to have you.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

We care more about how you work than who you are on paper.\u00a0<\/p>

Thinking from the client’s side.<\/strong> You put yourself in the client’s shoes and sense whether a fix is worth 2 hours or 2 days. Does the investment justify itself, in cost, in risk, in time? You default to the option that makes sense for that client, not automatically the most thorough one.<\/p>

You’re comfortable with client contact.<\/strong> Some direct client contact comes with the role, so being at ease in that setting matters.<\/p>

An adjacent background is fine.<\/strong> You don’t need a strict data background. Real interest in data counts for more than a data-specific r\u00e9sum\u00e9.<\/p>

Dutch and English.<\/strong> You can hold a conversation in both.<\/p>

Nice to have:<\/strong> interest or experience in data governance, security, or privacy, things like data sovereignty, open versus closed AI models, or self-hosting decisions. A plus, not a requirement.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Day-to-day, you would work across a modern data stack: Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, dbt, git, and visualisation in tools like Power BI. Data preparation for AI runs through more and more of what we do, so that sits close to the centre.<\/p>

We expect a working baseline of SQL and\/or Python. Past that, what you already know counts for less than how you think and how curious you are. Tools can be picked up, and for juniors that is exactly how it tends to go. Bring a good mindset and a real appetite to figure things out, and we can teach you the rest.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Flexibility you feel in your actual day:<\/b>\u00a0roughly one day a week we are together in the office, the rest is remote, and beyond that you work when it suits your life.<\/p>

Early riser, night owl, school run at 3 PM;\u00a0we care that the work is good, not that you sat at a desk between fixed hours.<\/b><\/p>

And\u00a0no heavy commercial targets<\/b>\u00a0breathing down your neck. We are human first, and we would rather do work worth doing and do it well than chase billable hours for their own sake.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
