Finland Job Openings

Solita

October 3, 2024

At Solita, we believe in the power of technology to transform industries and create a positive impact on society. We aim to build data solutions that drive real-world change for the better. Now, we’re looking for Data Architects to join our community and take on some of the most meaningful challenges in data today.

Our projects cover a broad spectrum, with some focusing on critical sustainability issues, such as addressing deforestation, carbon footprint reduction, and circular economy. For example, regulations like the EUDR (European Deforestation Regulation) are becoming a priority for businesses globally, and we are here to support our clients in achieving radical data transparency across their supply chains. We are happy to see that there are also emerging regulations, like Data Act, CSRD, EUDR and ESPR, driving companies towards a more sustainable world and we want to support them in this journey.

As a Data Architect at Solita, my role goes beyond just the technology — we deeply understand the customer's needs and collaborate closely to deliver meaningful solutions. What truly drives me is the value we create for the customer. Working with customers who trust and value our input fosters an incredible atmosphere where empathy and collaboration thrive. We don’t just focus on the implementation — we consider how each decision affects the entire team and how the end user will experience the solution. From cloud platform implementations to advanced language-model-based analytics, we operate at the cutting edge of technology. What makes my role fulfilling is knowing that our work has a real, tangible impact, helping customers meet sustainability goals and enabling transparent business processes. Mikko Puonti, Data Architect

Seniority we are looking for:

Experience in working as a data architect in cloud, on-premise and/or hybrid environments with the appropriate tools

Experience in designing and implementing technical solutions that incorporate data modelling, data integrations, data warehouses, data pipelines, databases (SQL/No SQL), and ETL/ELT

Experience with software development practices, e.g. version control and CI/CD
Capability to lead solution delivery and mentor and support colleagues to achieve the common coal

Reducing footprint and expanding handprint

For over 27 years, Solita has thrived on a foundation of responsible growth, where happy employees, satisfied customers, impactful projects, and strong business practices are at the heart of everything we do. These cornerstones reflect our deep commitment to our culture and values.

Our ESG program focuses on three key areas:

Environmental sustainability – A smaller footprint, a bigger handprint

People – Wellbeing, diversity, equity, inclusion (DEI), and humane leadership

Business & Society – Responsible business practices, ethical value chains, data privacy, and information security

When it comes to environmental sustainability, we've taken concrete steps toward positive change:

Expanding our handprint: We empower our customers to reduce their environmental impact through our solutions.

Offsetting emissions: For the emissions we can't avoid, we compensate for those generated by our core business operations.

Reducing our carbon footprint: We've committed to setting science-based targets that align with the 1.5°C pathway for all scopes.

Continuous improvement: Our environmental management system is certified according to ISO 14001:2015, and we take full accountability for enhancing it every step of the way.

Tracking progress: We measure our greenhouse gas emissions annually using the GHG Protocol, ensuring transparency and progress.
