Ethics, privacy, and quality are at the heart of our work, and we will not sacrifice these for outcomes. We treat data with respect and use it only for the right purpose. Our people are positive, dedicated, and relentless. Data is a vast topic, but we strive for interactions that are engaging, informative and fun in equal measure. But maintain a steely focus on outcomes and delivering quality products for our customers. We are passionate about our people; we want out colleagues to develop the things they are good at and enjoy.

  • Hands-on experience with infrastructure-as-code (IaC) tools such as Terraform and Ansible.
