</b></p></div><div><p>With immediate effect, MSF OCA is currently looking for a:<br>
</p></div><p></p><div><p><b>Day in the life of a Data Engineer at MSF<br>
</b></p></div><p></p><div><p>You start your day with the bi-weekly operational update from the Operations department to hear what is going on in our projects, for instance in our Cholera project in Goma or vaccination campaign in South Sudan. Then it&rsquo;s time to get to your engineering work, after you have quick stand-up with the team.<br>
</p></div><p></p><div><p>As you will be at least coding 50% of the time that day, you can focus on our key project to migrate our Python ETL code from Azure Batch accounts to Azure Databricks. You make sure the code aligns with best practices, optimize performance and build robust error handling.<br>
</p></div><p></p><div><p>In the late afternoon you have a brainstorming about the opportunities to automate monitoring and data quality checks for other projects, and to identify a possible implementation of a ML model into production that a data scientist has created.
