Data Pipeline Engineer (NiFi, Talend, NoSQL and Graph Databases) for NATO with security clearance in The Hague

The data exists. Your job is to get it where it needs to be, reliably.
A multinational defence organisation in The Hague needs a data engineer to design and build the ETL processes that bring imagery and reports from sources on different networks into its systems, and then make those flows controllable, observable and resilient. The engagement is one person, delivered as a set of milestones over the year.
What you would be doing Documenting, configuring and testing the ETL requirements: source-to-target mapping, traceability and data reconciliation
Building data models, pipelines and schemas for data coming from many different sources
Putting configuration control in place: baselines, versioning, change approval and rollback
Setting up monitoring with metrics, alerts, dashboards and logging
Designing and testing resilience: backup and restore, failover, recovery time and point objectives
Troubleshooting production data flows, and handing over through a training package and on-the-job training for the administrators
What you would bring Hands-on experience with modern ETL tools such as Apache NiFi, Informatica, Talend or SSIS, ideally on AWS or Azure
Data modelling and transformation from heterogeneous sources
Experience with data sharing platforms, object stores and relational, NoSQL, graph and vector databases
Comfort on the Linux command line and a knack for fixing data anomalies
Experience delivering against fixed, deliverable-based contracts in multinational teams
Familiarity with NATO intelligence and surveillance architecture and applications, and fluent business English
Why this one is worth a look A clearly scoped engineering job where you own the pipelines end to end, with an option year after the first.
