Senior Data Engineer
My client is looking for a Senior Data Engineer to join their expanding data team.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who thrives in a collaborative, insight-driven environment and is passionate about leveraging data to deliver tangible business value.
This is not a role for someone just moving data from A to B with Python — it's for someone who understands how to model, optimise, and apply data to support better business decisions.
Key Experience Required
- Expertise in SQL Server (approx. 75% of the role) including performance tuning, data warehousing, and reporting.
- Experience with AWS data services (approx. 25%), particularly RDS, S3, Lambda, Event Bridge, and building data pipelines in cloud-native environments.
- Proven delivery of dimensional/Kimball data models in collaboration with Data Analysts.
- Strong proficiency with Power BI, including performance optimisation and deployment strategies.
- Hands-on experience with Python for automation and data transformation (not just file handling).
- Understanding and experience of Data Governance frameworks and implementation.
- Exposure to CI/CD pipelines and source control for reports and analytics.
- Bonus: Familiarity with Sage Maker or similar ML/predictive analytics platforms.
We're looking for someone who
- Thinks like a data user, not just a data builder – with a strong sense of how to deliver real-world business outcomes.
- Is confident shaping and optimising data for analytical consumption.
- Collaborates well with analysts, product owners, and stakeholders to translate problems into solutions.
Why Join?
- Be part of a growing, innovation-led organisation committed to building intelligent, insight-driven systems.
- Access excellent benefits including hybrid working, on-site gym, CSR days, birthday leave, and more.
- Contribute to a high-impact, forward-looking data strategy with genuine business engagement.
- Hybrid working policy: This role is classed as hybrid, with the expectation of just one day per month in the Manchester office.
