Junior Expert Data Analytics & AI* At Welthungerhilfe

The position is to be filled as soon as possible, with a contract duration of two years. Employment location will be Bonn, Germany.

We are the fairly new Data Analytics & AI (D&A) team. In collaboration with colleagues from all areas of our organization, we develop solutions and approaches in the large cosmos of Advanced Analytics. Our strategic focus is on data-based learning. Your opportunity: You can be actively involved in building an organization-wide cloud data warehouse and analytics platform and gain fascinating insights from our data. You will be part of a dedicated, innovative team that drives data-driven decisions and always keeps the well-being of our organization in mind. Our challenges as an NGO are special: your stakeholders can be part of the donor service in Bonn or project managers* in our 37 project countries. There in the field, hurdles like power cuts or missing internet connections can make data collection difficult. It’s not always easy, but challenging. Are you up for it? Then we look forward to getting to know you!

Your responsibilities

• You actively shape the design and development of data analytics and AI solutions based on cloud technologies.
• You will record and structure processes for the joint development of analytical products with the business units and manage collaboration in agile and interdisciplinary teams in order to convert data into insights.
• You will guide colleagues from the business, set standards for the use of our products and solutions, and be a Data Ambassador for the organization, like everyone on the team.
• You identify use cases, develop their technical design and implementation up to operation and implement the associated data pipelines including visualizations in dashboards.
• Together with our Data Architect, you develop a sustainable infrastructure as well as data pipelines to supply analytical products from different data sources.
• A strategic topic to implement AI/ML models in the context of the organization’s work will accompany you during your two years and you will make it your own – for this we will work out a plan together how you can get to know at least one of our country offices abroad.

Your profile

• First and foremost, we are convinced by your personality: your passion for the topic of data analysis paired with your will to move the organization forward together with us.
• You have a master’s degree in (business) informatics, data science, (business) mathematics, software engineering or similar.
• You already have knowledge of SQL and data warehouse modeling – in addition, experience with the Azure tool stack and MS PowerBI would make it easier for you to get started.
• You are characterized by a high willingness to learn and openness for new things.
• You also enjoy working in a team and taking on tasks independently.
• You question processes and express your opinion.
• Thanks to your quick comprehension and strong analytical skills, you are also willing to take on new tasks.
• You are service-oriented, proactive and communicative, have high quality standards – but do not lose sight of your goal.
• You work analytically and quickly and enjoy finding creative solutions.
