Do you dream about working in a truly data-driven company? Can you see yourself in a team and organization where autonomy, fast decision-making and developing best-in-class solutions are at the core of everything we do? Well, here is your chance to join InCommodities – one of the fastest-growing energy trading companies in the world. 

We are currently modernizing our data platform to meet the increasing demand for real-time, always available, and appropriately modelled data in a highly scalable data platform, and we are looking for a SQL Database Engineer to join our BI team to help drive this modernization. 

Your journey as a SQL Database Engineer

As a SQL Database Engineer, you will play a crucial role in modernizing our data platform by choosing the appropriate technologies, methods, and tools. You will work closely with users and the rest of the IT team to ensure that InCommodities' data needs are met.

You will have plenty opportunities for both professional and personal growth, and we guarantee you a steep learning curve. You will enjoy a high degree of autonomy, which is one of our cornerstones in the organization. We provide highly skilled colleagues with whom you can learn and develop tools. We will offer sparring and support in all areas to help you achieve your full potential in this role.

Responsibilities

  • Monitor and optimize our MS SQL databases to ensure high availability and low latency on business-critical queries

  • Design data models, ETL flows, and indexing strategies for large data volume

  • Assist users in writing efficient SQL

  • Provide ad-hoc support to users of our data platform

Qualifications – we imagine that you:

  • Have a relevant educational background in business intelligence, computer science or similar

  • Have at least a few years of experience with database administration or business intelligence

  • Have extensive experience with tasks such as query optimizing, indexing, and partitioning

  • Have experience with T-SQL, stored procedures, and data modeling

  • Have knowledge about MS SQL internals to maximize our utilization of the technology

  • Have an interest in developing services such as Azure SQL Hyperscale, Azure Data Lake, and Azure Stream Analytics

  • Have curiosity about modern database technologies such as Databricks to ensure that we always choose the right technology for the task

  • Have strong interpersonal and communication skills

Personal skills – we expect that you:

  • Are goal-oriented and result-driven

  • Are proactive with a can-do attitude

  • Are a team-player

  • Have strong communication skills and actively engage in knowledge sharing 

  • Are motivated by working in an agile structure with an emphasis on sparring and self-leadership

  • Are interested in financial market dynamics

  • Are ready to fail fast, learn fast - often, the right solution is discovered in the process of implementing an initial but sub-optimal method

What you can expect from us:

  • A steep learning curve and the ability to use theoretical knowledge in real life

  • A lot of responsibility and support

  • Exceptional colleagues who are bold, honest, ambitious, and the smartest in their field

  • A unique company culture where we live up to our values: Honesty, Transparency, and Rethink and where you don't have to abide by a dress code or a strict hierarchy, so you won't be frustrated with too many rules, policies, or bureaucratic processes

  • A bunch of great events - both in the teams and in the entire organization

  • The opportunity to develop both professionally and personally

We’re InCommodities: One of the fastest growing trading companies in the world. The energy market is transitioning away from fossil fuels to renewable energy, and we take part in making that happen! 

At InCommodities, we support the transition by acting as the middleman between sellers and buyers of power and gas - we transport energy across borders where it’s needed, or we store it and sell it later, providing a vital function in the value chain from production to consumption. InCommodities’ business and decision-making are driven by a deep understanding of the energy markets and based on quantitative analysis and rethinking what we do.

Making InCommodities outstanding requires all types of people with different personalities, backgrounds, and approaches to solving different tasks and projects. But one thing connects us: we're fuelled by new ideas and rethinking the status quo.

 

 

Our culture

We value a strong social culture with a high frequency of employee events outside the office. We want to win and be the best in class – therefore, you'll be surrounded by like-minded people who are bold, honest, ambitious, and the smartest in their field, and who root for one another, as we value a genuine sense of team spirit.

To help each other grow, we use honest and constructive feedback and sparring within and across teams. Personality and cultural fit are important to us because we want you to be happy here. The work culture is relaxed; you don’t have to abide by a dress code or a strict hierarchy, so you won’t be frustrated with too many rules, policies, or bureaucratic processes. 

In other words, InCommodities is not your average workplace – it’s awesome.
