EMEIA Sales Finance - Analytics Engineer

This role resides within the Process, Analytics, Reporting and Technology (PART) Enablement Team.

We empower Apple’s EMEIA Sales Finance teams to operate more efficiently and make data-driven decisions by building and deploying innovative, user-friendly data applications.

You will directly improve the day-to-day workflows of financial analysts, helping them unlock insights and drive business impact.

This is a hands‑on role where you’ll see your work used by key stakeholders across the organisation.

We are looking for a strong Data Engineer with a passion for building intuitive web applications that solve real-world business problems.

This role is at the intersection of data engineering, software development, and financial process optimisation.

You will be responsible for designing, building, and deploying lightweight web interfaces and data tools – primarily using Python frameworks like Streamlit – to streamline financial analysis, reporting, and decision-making.

You will also build data pipelines to support business needs.

Success in this role requires an individual who can quickly understand complex financial processes, translate those processes into technical specifications, and deliver high-quality, user-friendly data applications.

You’ll be a key collaborator with financial analysts, data scientists, and other engineers, building trust through clear communication and impactful solutions.

Ideal candidates also have a strong understanding of UI/UX principles for designing intuitive, self‑service data applications that drive user adoption across business teams with varying levels of technical expertise.
