(Senior) Data / Analytics Engineer

Founded in 1996, mobile.de disrupted the status quo of buying and selling cars as the first online vehicle marketplace.

Today, we are Germany's largest vehicle marketplace with around 1.4 million listed cars, commercial vehicles, motorcycles and e-bikes. Both private customers and more than 40,000 registered vehicle dealers use the platform and benefit from 108 million customer visits per month. As a “one-stop shop”, mobile.de's offering includes financing and leasing solutions in addition to buying and selling - and we will not stop innovating. If you are driven by an eagerness to learn and a passion for collaboration then we should get to know each other.
