We make it a priority to ensure that each member of the Capitec team feels welcome, valued, focused, and has the opportunity to grow.

About The Role/Team

Join a purpose-driven data team that plays a crucial role in supporting Capitec’s growing insurance business - and beyond. Our team supports key areas such as financial sub-ledgers, reconciliations, and reporting, while also working across retail banking and business banking.

We’re looking for a Data Engineer who’s passionate about clean, efficient data solutions. Your main focus will be on supporting financial sub-ledgers, cloud migration projects, and implementing new requirements driven by the insurance business.

• Interpreting and implementing new business and regulatory requirements.
• Collaborating with SDMs, finance teams, and business stakeholders.

Your Day-to-Day Might Include

• Designing, building, and maintaining robust and scalable data pipelines.
• Writing complex SQL queries for data extraction, transformation, and analysis.

• Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently with minimal supervision.
• A solid understanding of data engineering best practices, pipelines, and the data development lifecycle.
• A genuine sense of curiosity and an eagerness to ask “why” and “how” to get to the root of challenges.
• While prior experience in the insurance industry is not a requirement, it is highly advantageous.

If you are interested in being part of this dynamic team, on a mission to build the best bank in the world through unlocking the potential of its people, please apply. We would love to hear from you!
