We’re looking for a Data Engineering Lead to join our EMEA team. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who enjoys building robust data platforms while guiding teams to deliver high-quality, production-ready solutions.
You’ll sit at the intersection of engineering, product, and delivery, helping transform complex data requirements into scalable, reliable systems that drive real-world impact- whether that’s enhancing fan experiences, improving operations, or enabling smarter decisions.
This is more than a technical role – it’s an opportunity to shape data as a product: trusted, reusable, and valuable across multiple stakeholders and use cases.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
- Lead with impact
- Own the design and delivery of modern data pipelines and platforms across batch and streaming environments
- Stay close to the code – guiding architecture, solving complex problems, and supporting teams through delivery challenges
- Build scalable data solutions
- Design end-to-end data platforms across ingestion, transformation, storage, and serving layers
- Define best practices for orchestration, modelling, monitoring, and data quality
- Create reusable data products that support analytics, reporting, and AI use cases
- Collaborate across teams
- Work closely with product, architecture, analytics, and client stakeholders
- Translate technical concepts into clear, actionable insights
- Lead discussions that align engineering decisions with business outcomes
- Drive quality and reliability
- Champion best practices in testing, observability, governance, and performance
- Embed security, privacy, and cost-awareness into solutions
- Identify risks early and ensure consistent, high-quality delivery
- Grow people and capability
- Mentor engineers and elevate team performance
- Promote strong engineering culture (CI/CD, code review, documentation)
- Contribute reusable frameworks and standards across the organisation

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

- Proven experience delivering modern data platforms in cloud environments (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
- Strong hands-on skills in SQL, data modelling, and software engineering practices
- Experience with tools like Spark, dbt, Airflow (or similar) and data warehouse/lakehouse architectures
- Solid understanding of data quality, lineage, observability, and performance optimisation
- Ability to lead technical delivery while staying close to implementation detail
- Comfortable working with distributed teams and client-facing environments
- Strong communication skills – able to bridge technical and non-technical audiences
Nice to have: Experience in consulting, systems integration, or large-scale delivery environments
WHY PMY?
- Growth: Scale your career with diverse projects and continuous learning.
- Flexibility: Embrace a work-life balance with flexible hours and remote work opportunities.
- Impact: Your work directly transforms the venue experience for millions.
- Culture: Collaborate with a passionate team in a dynamic, innovative environment.
