hackajob is collaborating with Made Tech to connect them with exceptional professionals for this role.

Our Data Engineers enable public sector organisations to embrace a data-driven approach by providing data platforms and services that are high-quality, cost-efficient, and tailored to the clients’ needs. They develop, operate, and maintain these services. They make sure they provide maximum value to data consumers, including analysts, scientists, and business stakeholders.

We want to empower the public sector to deliver and continuously improve digital services that are user-centric, data-driven and freed from legacy technology. A key component of this is developing modern data systems and platforms that drive informed decision-making for our clients.

As a Data Engineer, you'll play a hands-on role as a contributor to client projects, focusing on both delivering engineering work as well as upskilling members of the client team.

As a member of the data capability within Made Tech, you will also participate in our hiring process and continued development of the team, as well as representing us both internally to the organisation and publicly via presentations.
