Oost-NederlandSenior Data/AI Engineer

Full Time - Oost-Nederland

Are you passionate about data and AI, and do you get energy from guiding colleagues and building a strong team together? At Datacation, we do not stop at advisory reports and PowerPoint presentations. We believe you only make a real impact when you work closely with the client and roll up your sleeves yourself. That is why many of our people are both engineers and consultants. This keeps your work varied and ensures you stay involved from idea to implementation.

Your role in building our East Netherlands office

For our new office in East Netherlands, we are looking for experienced Senior Data/AI Engineers who not only deliver complex projects, but also play an important role in the continued growth of Datacation in the region. Together with colleagues in East Netherlands, the other Datacation offices, and our domain leads, you will help build a strong local foundation, way of working, and quality standard.

About Datacation

Datacation is the data and AI partner where expertise, quality, and ownership are central. We help organizations use data structurally for better decision-making, from strategy and architecture to implementation and adoption.

Over the past five years, we have grown into a team of more than 50 colleagues, working from our offices in Eindhoven and Amsterdam, and soon also in East Netherlands.

Job Description

As a Senior Data/AI Engineer, you play a key role in challenging data and AI projects. You combine technical depth with coaching and help colleagues and clients make the right decisions.

Your responsibilities may include

• Translating business challenges into scalable data and AI solutions.

• Designing and building modern data and AI platforms in Azure.
• Supporting architecture decisions, scope definition, and technical decision-making.
• Working on modern data and AI challenges, for example in the areas of GenAI, AI Agents, RAG, and MLOps.
• Structuring projects and helping define deliverables and implementation approaches.
• Actively contributing to the development of junior and medior colleagues.
• Collaborating with Business Development to translate client needs into technical solutions.
• Actively contributing to knowledge sharing within Datacation.
• Presenting technical solutions and recommendations to clients and stakeholders.
• Making an active contribution to the further development of our new office in East Netherlands.

What do we expect from you?

• At least 5 years of experience in data engineering, data science, machine learning, and/or MLOps.
• Strong knowledge of cloud platforms, Python, SQL, data modelling, and modern AI tooling, focused on building production-ready solutions.
• Experience guiding and coaching colleagues.
• The ability to explain technical choices clearly to a variety of stakeholders.
• Strong organizational skills and a proactive, entrepreneurial mindset.
• Excellent command of the Dutch language, both spoken and written.
• A proactive attitude and entrepreneurial mindset.

What you can expect from us?

• A key role in the further development of our new office in East Netherlands.
• The opportunity to have a strong influence on ways of working, technology choices, and knowledge development.
• Working on challenging data and AI projects for leading organizations.
• A high level of autonomy and responsibility within a flat organization.
• Collaboration with an enthusiastic team of experienced data and AI professionals.
• Room for personal development, training, and certifications.
• Several team outings each year, with the annual winter sports trip as the highlight.
• Becoming part of a driven team with a high-performance mindset and a strong sense of collaboration.
