Who are we looking for?
We are looking for a Data Engineering Trainee who will help us build, optimize, and maintain the systems that make our data flow reliably and efficiently.
You are someone who wants to dive deep into data and analytics infrastructure and make sure our systems are clean, scalable, and high-performing.
You don’t need to be a senior developer, but we want you to be hungry to learn. If you already have some experience with SQL or Python or any tool to process or visualize data, that’s a big plus. If not, we expect you to be excited to learn and become an expert over time.
It’s also a plus if you have an interest in data, statistics, building data products or strategic thinking — but your drive and willingness to learn is what matters most.
Job description
The position as a Data Engineering Trainee is a full-time role for candidates based in Sweden.
Your main task is to develop and secure our data systems to ensure clean, reliable, and scalable data - this includes:
Responsibility for maintaining our databases and data pipelines from current tracking systems and data sources
Optimizing existing data pipelines and streamlining our data flow
Building new connections and data integrations with additional data sources
There’s no limit to how much you can learn and grow in this role — it’s all up to your ambition and passion for data.

Strive to learn and develop ✍️
As an organic grown organization many people join Leadstar Media with no or little experience, or with experience that might not be transferable to how we work. Therefore learning and development becomes even more important at Leadstar Media compared to other organizations. We love nerds, because as a nerd you dig deep into your learning, so if you feel like a nerd you are more than welcome to apply for a job.

We care 💪🏼
A Leadstar is someone who shows great care and consideration for their work and reaching success, as well as the team and the people around them. We work with the philosophy that Leadstars should feel an ownership over their work, and become experts with a deep knowledge of their product and field. To care about and be proud of your work is something we aim for every Leadstar to feel.
An organic grown organization
As mentioned above, we recruit based on the potential we see in you, not based on your current hard skills. We are an organic grown organization, most of the Leadstars have joined Leadstar Media with no experience or with experience that is not hundred percent translatable to how we work. We believe it’s unique to be such a successful company as we are, based on how we have recruited 🌟
