Are you ready to have a broad impact at Schibsted and play a key role in Schibsted’s data strategy?
Welcome to Data Foundations! Our department is responsible for delivering an integrated set of technologies and central services that collectively empower Schibsted’s brands and businesses to deliver value by leveraging data - always with our users' best interest at heart. Our data capabilities serve as the foundation on which Schibsted brands and teams can autonomously develop their applications and sustain their business model: data collection, preparation, enrichment, delivery, and governance, using privacy by design solutions.
Our team within Data Foundations is responsible for developing products to enable all Schibsted brands to collect billions of events per day and validate high-quality data with low friction. Our product portfolio consists of:
Pulse Console - self-service tools to orchestrate Schibsted’s data collection, processing and storage needs.
Pulse Collection - data quality tools, debugging tools, identity management and data collection through our SDKs.
The Collection team sets a large value on being engaged in continuous product research and user validation, with close collaboration with our 55+ brands, customers and adjacent teams to ensure we’re building the right products to solve our users’ problems. We enjoy being part of a team that continually improves its processes, sharing and receiving constructive feedback, contributing to everyone’s growth and having an inclusive, collaborative and diverse environment.

Our infrastructure is mainly built in AWS (S3, Cloudfront, Cloudformation, Route53, some EC2, DynamoDB, ALB, PostgreSQL), Kubernetes, Aiven, Datadog, Humio, Spinnaker, Travis, Artifactory, and Github.
