Reading the live data engineer roles in Sweden, the skills that come up most often are SQL, Python, Databricks, Azure and data modeling. That is what the adverts themselves list, so treat it as what employers are writing down rather than the full set of what the job involves.

On seniority, the live set breaks down as 9 junior, 8 mid-level, 57 senior and 10 lead, with the rest not stating a level clearly enough to classify. Senior roles are the largest group at the moment.

Of the 191 live data engineer roles in Sweden we are tracking, 99 (52%) read as English-friendly: the advert is written in English, or it states that the working language is English, or it asks for no Swedish. The remainder either require Swedish or leave it unsaid, and unsaid usually means it is expected.

We read that signal on every advert individually rather than assuming it from the employer, because the same company often runs English engineering roles and Swedish-language commercial roles side by side.

4 of the live data engineer roles in Sweden (2%) carry a visa-sponsorship signal, meaning the advert mentions sponsorship, relocation support, or explicitly welcomes applicants who need a permit. It is a signal read from the advert, not a guarantee from the employer, so confirm it for the specific role before you count on it.

For how sponsorship actually works in Sweden, who can support a permit and what the timelines look like, see the work permit sponsorship guide. For employers with a track record across the whole bank rather than this page, see companies hiring internationally.

Most Swedish adverts do not quote pay, so we publish a figure only where enough of them do. Where the sample is real, the observed monthly range sits on the data engineer salary page, read from the adverts themselves rather than from a survey.
