Why Apply?
We're looking for a skilled Data Engineer to help shape the future of data within a leading organisation. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to building a product‑led engineering team that delivers lasting impact. This is not an analytics focused role, it's about engineering excellence, Python first development, and operating data platforms in a production environment. If you're motivated by solving complex engineering problems, driving best practice, and working in a business cultivating a robust in‑house team, this role could be the next step for you.
Responsibilities & Qualifications
* Design, build, and optimise data pipelines in Python, PySpark, SparkSQL, and Databricks.
* Ingest, transform, and enrich structured, semi‑structured, and unstructured data.
* Operate and support production‑grade data systems with strong observability and monitoring.
* Enable real‑time and batch data processing for analytics and business applications.
* Collaborate with Product Managers, Data Architects, and Analysts in Agile squads.
* Embed best practice engineering principles and contribute to a culture of continuous improvement.
* Strong experience with Python‑based data engineering and SQL.
* Background in software engineering with experience running systems in production.
* Knowledge of observability, monitoring, and performance optimisation.
* Experience with cloud data platforms (Azure preferred).
* Exposure to streaming and event‑driven data pipelines is advantageous.
* Ability to work independently without heavy coaching or mentoring.
* Comfortable working in an Agile, product‑led environment.
What's in it for me?
* Generous pension scheme (up to 7% matched).
* 15% retail discount (in‑store and online).
* Comprehensive healthcare and wellbeing support, including virtual GP, counselling, and cash plans.
* Inclusion networks and supportive culture.
* Professional development opportunities as part of a growing in‑house engineering team.
We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from all suitably qualified persons regardless of their race, sex, disability, religion/belief, sexual orientation or age.
