The Opportunity 🏆

Help our Partner Operations team work smarter and faster by turning manual, repetitive workflows into reliable automations. You’ll own the design of lightweight workflows (n8n + Python), build guardrails around configuration files and create the data alerts we need to spot issues early and recover quickly. Your impact will be measured in faster & better delivery for our customers. Come join our forward-thinking team in the air freight & logistics space—an industry on the cusp of digital transformation!

We’re backed by leading VCs (Index, Bessemer) and thrive on a remote-first culture across Europe and South Africa. You’ll be part of a feedback-driven, fun, and ambitious environment. If you’re eager to keep learning and make a huge impact through scale and innovation—this role is for you!


Key Responsibilities ⚙️

• Design, implement, and maintain workflow automations in n8n (or similar) and Python to reduce manual efforts across team

• Set up monitoring, logging, and alerting for automations; write clear runbooks and drive quick incident response

• Create operational dashboards (e.g., in Looker) that surface data quality, health, and SLA performance

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to refine processes and integrate your automations with existing systems


What We’re Looking For 🚀

• You’re a SQL rock star, so fluent in advanced queries that you speak them like your mother tongue.

• Hands-on Python experience (you’ve dabbled before, ready to scale up further).

• Passion for automated workflows—always on the lookout for opportunities to optimize.

• A keen eye for detail, catching issues or inconsistencies early on.

• Self-driven approach: you love taking ownership of your projects.

• Ability to adapt, learn quickly, and give/receive feedback with grace.


Nice to Have ✨

• Familiarity with data visualisation platforms (Looker, Tableau, PowerBI)

• Experience working with a cloud data warehouse (e.g., BigQuery, Snowflake, Redshift)

• A technical degree in Computer Science or a related field


Why You’ll Love It Here ❤️

• Remote-first setup, with regular offsite adventures and meetups.

• Home office budget of €650 + your choice of MacBook Air (M3) or Dell XPS.

• Biannual company-wide off-sites and fun team events.

• Mindsurance for premium mental health support.

• 24 paid vacation days plus bank holidays & special leaves.

• Full-time permanent role via Remote.com.
