Hi, I'm Andra, Director of Data at Airalo! Our team works across the full data ecosystem, from collection to insights activation, ensuring that every piece of data drives meaningful action. We’re curious problem-solvers who love tackling challenges that haven’t been solved before and building tools and processes that scale impact across the company.

Airalo’s fully remote Data team is growing. You’ll turn numbers into decisions that shape the future of our business, collaborating with cross-functional teams to solve complex problems and influence how millions of travellers stay connected. This isn’t just dashboards - it’s using data to drive strategy, inform product and growth decisions, and create real impact. You’ll have access to best-in-class tools, the freedom to experiment, and a team ready to turn insights into action.

As the Data Engineering Manager, you will lead the foundational backend of our data organization. You will directly manage our current pod of Data Engineers (2 Senior Data Engineers and 1 Customer Data Platform Engineer) and shape the hiring roadmap as the function grows - including scoping future specialized roles such as Machine Learning Engineers. Partnering closely with the Data Director, you will help us transition out of the reactive, ad-hoc phase and into a structured, highly scalable data ecosystem.

You will own the architecture, ingestion, and orchestration that powers the rest of the data team - ensuring that our Analytics Engineers, Data Analysts and other users have a rock-solid, high-quality foundation to build upon. This role goes beyond building a data platform. You'll be the connective tissue between Product.
