  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with data science, analytics, product, and engineering teams to ensure data is accessible, discoverable, and meets CAVU standards
  • Data Quality & Governance: Establish and champion best practices for data quality, governance, observability, and security
  • Technology Evaluation: Stay ahead of data engineering trends and evaluate emerging tools to enhance the team’s capabilities
  • Budget & Resource Management: Own the data engineering budget and ensure efficient use of infrastructure and resources
  • Stakeholder Management: Anticipate issues, remove blockers, and communicate effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders

Requirements:

  • Strong experience with medallion architecture and Databricks
  • Proficiency with ETL tools (e.g., Rivery) and ML-Ops frameworks
  • Strong programming skills (Python, Scala or Java)
  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to bring clarity to complexity
  • Proven ability to anticipate problems and resolve them with ease

Nice to have:

  • 10% company pension
  • Annual bonus scheme
  • On-site gym
