Project context
The project aims to unify RSDD APIs TXR002 and ADE into a single service that will act as the central calculations data provider for all current and future consumers.

Consolidating them should reduce service complexity, streamline change management, and contribute to cost savings. The role is part of a new scrum team within the Minerva Platform to develop and deliver Ingestion and Risking within the SAS Platform including IDP.
The Minerva Platform is a SAS-based tool designed to industrialise the identification and risking of tax-related activities, currently deployed for Self Assessment (SA) and VAT Repayment Risking, and being expanded to support more applications. The Data Engineer will join the Data Acquisition Team to ingest and integrate data from diverse sources into the Minerva Platform, supporting programmes such as Making Tax Digital (MTD), Income Tax Self Assessment (ITSA), and new initiatives like Agent Registration Risking. This role is required specifically for the MMTAR (Modernising, Mandating Tax Advisor Registration) Risking initiative.
