WHY OATLY?

Across the world people’s consumption habits and diets are evolving to be more plant-based. Enter Oatly, the #1 oat based dairy alternative producer in the world with products spanning multiple categories.

We’re determined on being part of the discussion on the long-term future of the food and beverage industry. To keep this movement going, we need more brilliant minds to come work with us to keep the momentum going and the Oatly flowing.

WHAT WE NEED YOU TO DO

The Data Engineer plays a key role in Oatly’s digitalization journey by enabling data-driven decision-making. As part of the Data & Analytics team, you turn data into actionable insights by collecting, processing, and analyzing information.

Working closely with business stakeholders, you translate needs into technical solutions that improve how the organization operates. Your work drives insights and uncovers new opportunities, with a focus on making AI and automation core capabilities.

Here’s the main elements of the role...

• Facilitating an agile framework (e.g., stand-ups, planning, reviews, retrospectives). Improving workflows and fostering collaboration, thus enabling the Data & Analytics team to self-organize and succeed.
