Jobs aT Datylon

Data Visualization Engineer

Belgium-based

Introduction

Datylon is a scale-up that offers data visualization products & services with a vision to bring about change with data. We have been around for a couple of years, successfully delivering custom digital & dataviz development projects. In early 2020, we also launched our data-viz platform and chart and report maker tool for designers, business users, and enterprises worldwide.

Data visualization has evolved tremendously over the last few years. Datylon caught this exciting dataviz wave nearly from the onset. With a team of 25 (partly remote) experienced software engineers and dataviz experts we’ve been enjoying building our cutting-edge dataviz products. 

The Datylon team is hands-on, focused, and combines a startup DNA with tons of experience in building and bringing to market complex software and SaaS solutions. As we’re at the forefront of dataviz we invest in experimenting and learning new tools, frameworks, and concepts. We are always exploring and open to new and better ways of working. 

Our offices are located in the heart of Antwerp (dunden).

You will be involved in projects related to the design and development of dataviz, both within Datylon and with our customers. You care deeply about great design and enabling a strong user experience to make data communication more effective.

We strongly believe in the strength of diverse and inclusive teams. We provide a flexible environment that helps you grow as an individual while we deliver great teamwork that benefits our customers.
