About the Role
We're looking for experienced Data Engineers at all levels—from Data Engineer through to Senior, Lead, Principal, Analytics Engineer and Data Platform Engineer positions—for upcoming roles across data pipelines, warehouses, lakehouses and the platforms that data teams depend on. These are hands-on engineering roles where you'll build and operate the foundations that analytics, BI, data science and ML all stand on. You'll work across the full data engineering lifecycle—from ingestion and modelling through to transformation, orchestration, quality, observability and platform operation. The role suits someone who pairs strong software engineering discipline with genuine interest in data modelling and a pragmatic view of when to build, when to buy and when to leave it alone.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, build and operate production ELT / ETL pipelines that move data reliably at the volume and latency the business needs.
- Model data in the warehouse or lakehouse—dimensional, Data Vault, One Big Table or domain-driven approaches, fit to the use case.
- Build and maintain transformation layers in dbt (or equivalent), with appropriate testing, documentation and lineage.
- Operate orchestration tooling (Airflow or equivalent).
