Location: Indonesia, Jakarta
Team: Consulting & Software

💼 About the role
whitson is looking for a meticulous and motivated Data Tech Engineer to join our growing team in Indonesia. You’ll work closely with a senior engineer based in Jakarta and another in Norway — both originally from Indonesia — ensuring you’ll always have local guidance and mentorship nearby.
In this role, you'll play a key part in supporting both our consulting group and our clients by helping manage and structure PVT data (from PVT reports) in the whitsonPVT software platform. Your contribution will help our engineers and clients make better decisions faster and with greater confidence.

🧠 What you’ll do
· Collect and prepare data: Carefully read, interpret, and enter PVT data from various technical reports into the whitsonPVT software.
· Support database workflows: Help maintain and improve data quality within our internal and client-facing databases.
· Collaborate across teams: Work hand-in-hand with senior engineers in Jakarta and Norway, learning best practices and contributing to shared goals.
· Ensure data integrity: Check for consistency, accuracy, and completeness before final submission.
· Continuously improve: Identify opportunities to streamline data handling processes and suggest improvements to our workflows.

🔥 What we’re looking for
· Attention to detail: You are thorough, careful, and take pride in delivering clean, accurate work.
· Organized and reliable: You manage tasks systematically and do not rush through responsibilities.
· Eager to learn: You’re open to learning new tools, technical concepts, and data workflows, and you enjoy growing your skills over time.
· Effective communicator: You can communicate clearly in English (both written and spoken) and are comfortable asking questions when something is unclear.
· Basic technical skills: Comfortable working with Excel and PDF documents — or willing to become proficient quickly.
· Engineering background is a plus, but not required. Your mindset and dedication are more important than specific degrees.

✅ Nice to have
· Experience working with technical documents or laboratory data.
· Familiarity with database systems or data entry software.
· Exposure to oil and gas industry data (e.g., PVT analysis).

🌱 What we offer
At whitson, you’ll be part of a close-knit, supportive, and globally distributed team passionate about solving complex engineering challenges. We reward careful, high-quality work and provide you with the freedom and flexibility to do your best.
Additional evaluation step
All relevant applicants will be given a task to complete our PVT data digitalization certification, and questions from this will be discussed in a potential interview.
