Data Engineer
Remote (Occasional Travel to Letchworth office)
£50,000 - £55,000 per annum + benefits
Permanent
Do you want to build a data platform from the ground up rather than inherit someone else's? This Data Engineer role puts you at the start of a new Azure data platform for a well-established UK group with several businesses under one roof.
You'll join a small team of data engineers and own work end to end: talking to stakeholders, designing models, building and testing pipelines in Python and PySpark, and supporting BI. It's essentially remote, and the platform will grow from one business to the whole group, so there's plenty to get your hands on.
What You'll Be Doing
Gathering requirements with data, product and senior stakeholders, and helping them with data-related technical issues
Designing conceptual, logical and physical data models for the new platform
Building metadata-driven pipelines across Azure Synapse, Data Factory and PostgreSQL using Python and PySpark
Migrating data from legacy reporting solutions onto the platform while protecting data integrity
Releasing code through Azure DevOps and Git, and keeping documentation and data mapping up to date
Monitoring and tuning data loads, supporting BI users, and joining an out-of-hours rota for business-critical issues
What You'll Bring
Hands-on experience as a Data Engineer, building and maintaining data pipelines
Strong Python and PySpark skills
Experience with Azure data services such as Synapse, Databricks or Data Factory
Good SQL and data modelling skills
Confidence working with stakeholders to turn business needs into data solutions
Desirable: Microsoft Fabric, Tableau administration, Power BI, master data management (MDM), CI/CD with Azure DevOps
