At IG&H, we help our clients become leaders in their markets by combining consulting skills with deep expertise in data, technology and organisational change. We are looking for a Data Engineer to help design and build a scalable, future proof data backbone for our data and analytics projects. There is strong exposure to financial services, where regulation, security and reliability are non negotiable, alongside projects in retail and health.

This is a role with a clear growth path: we want someone who can grow into a senior engineer over time, taking on more ownership and responsibility as they develop. You will be based in Lisbon and work closely with colleagues and clients in the Netherlands, which means real international exposure, without leaving the country and with almost no time zone difference, on projects of high technical maturity where you can learn from experienced engineers.
