Data Engineer (Azure, Databricks, Terraform)
Contract: Initial 3 months (strong likelihood of a 6 month extension if all goes well)
Outside IR35
Day rate: £450 - £500/day
Location: Remote (occasional visits to Leeds office)
We're working with a financial services business in the middle of a major Databricks migration, moving off a legacy stack and building out a modern, cloud-native data platform. It's a meaty piece of transformation work and they need two strong Data Engineers to come in and help drive it forward.
This is a genuinely hands-on role. You'll be building out data pipelines and the Databricks environment itself, embedding good engineering practice across the team, and working shoulder to shoulder with delivery squads as the wider transformation takes shape. If you like being close to the architecture decisions and the day-to-day delivery rhythm, this one's worth a proper look.
Outside IR35, remote first, and paying £450 to £500 a day depending on experience. Initial three month contract with a strong steer towards a six month engagement for the right people. The start date is the beginning of September, so we're moving quickly on this one.
