We are seeking a Data Engineer with strong proficiency in Python and Scala to support predictive modeling, statistical analysis, and data-driven product initiatives. This role focuses on preparing high-quality datasets, enabling machine-learning workflows, and building scalable pipelines using modern data-engineering tools. You will work closely with engineering, product, and business teams to deliver reliable, production-ready data solutions across cloud environments.

Hybrid working: The places that you work from day to day will vary according to your role, your needs, and those of the business; it will be a blend of Company offices, client sites, and your home; noting that you will be unable to work at home 100% of the time.

Your Role:

• Perform data cleaning, transformation, and feature engineering to support ML and analytics use cases.
• Build and optimize data pipelines and automated workflows using Python, Scala, PySpark, and relevant ML libraries.
• Develop and maintain scalable data-processing systems for both batch and real-time workloads.
• Support model development by collaborating with data scientists and translating requirements into engineering solutions.
• Partner with cross-functional teams to deliver insights and ensure seamless data availability for decision-making.

Your Skills:

• Strong expertise in Python and Scala, with hands-on experience in Pandas, NumPy, Scikit-learn, PySpark, and MLlib.
• Solid SQL skills and experience working with large-scale, big-data frameworks (e.g., Spark, Hadoop).
• Familiarity with major cloud platforms such as Azure, AWS, or GCP.
• Ability to build scalable pipelines, automate workflows, and optimize data-engineering processes.
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to interpret and communicate complex findings clearly.
