Overview

We work with some of the UK’s biggest companies and government departments to provide a pragmatic approach to technology, delivering bespoke software solutions and expert advice.

Our clients are increasingly looking to us to help them make the best use of their data.

In building data platforms and pipelines, our data engineers create the foundation for diverse data & analytics solutions, including data science and AI.

They build data lakes and warehouses, create the processes to extract or access operational data, and transform siloed datasets into integrated data models that allow insight into business performance and problems or training of ML models.

Scope of the Role

These are hands‑on, client‑facing roles, with openings at senior or lead level to suit your experience.

You may be leading teams, setting technical direction, advising clients or solving tough engineering challenges.

You’d also be expected to spend some time on‑site with clients in the London area on an ad‑hoc basis.

Core Responsibilities

Approach data engineering with a strong software engineering background and deliver modern data pipelines, storage solutions, and reporting systems.

Qualifications

  • Good experience with modern data engineering and reporting technologies, including storage, data pipelines to ingest and transform data, and querying & reporting of analytical data.
  • Experience with technologies such as Python, Spark, SQL, Pyspark, Power BI, etc.
  • Background in software engineering, including front‑end technologies like Java Script.
  • Problem‑solving mindset, pragmatically exploring options and finding effective solutions.
  • Understand design and build of well‑structured, maintainable systems.
  • Strong communication skills and a collaborative approach to work.
  • Willingness to try new things, learn new skills, and grow your experience.
  • Experience with relevant cloud services within AWS, Azure, or GCP.
  • Experience working in an Agile environment.
  • Experience with common vendor products such as Snowflake or Databricks.
  • Experience with CI/CD tooling.
  • Proactive contributor to team and client outcomes.

Benefits

  • 25 days’ annual leave, rising to 30 days with each year of service.
  • Generous family leave policies.
  • Access to an employer pension scheme, private medical services, and Group Life Assurance.
  • A range of optional benefits such as discounted gym membership and a cycle‑to‑work scheme.
  • A meaningful approach to evaluating performance and providing feedback on progress.
  • Flexibility of remote working alongside the value gained from spending time with our colleagues and clients.
  • Equal Opportunity Employer

We have shared values that govern our behaviour toward others and the environment.

We are proud to be a B Corp, a global movement of businesses driving for a more inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy.

We believe diversity drives innovation, and embrace a culture where everyone can contribute, irrespective of race, religion, colour, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status or disability.
