  • Ensure complete version history by setting valid_from and valid_to dates

  • Validate new data sheets in terms of format, completeness, and content changes

  • Compare new and previous versions, ideally including automated PDF diff functionality

  • Maintain a change log in a separate table or log file

  • Visualize differences to ensure traceability

 

YOUR PROFILE:

  • Enrolled in a degree program in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field

  • Confident handling of relational databases (e.g. SQL, PostgreSQL)

  • Experience developing scripts or applications for data processing (e.g. Python, C#)

  • Ideally, experience with AI-based tools for document analysis or the use of AI agents

  • Experience with automated PDF processing and version control is a plus

  • Structured, solution-oriented, and self-driven working style
