Company
An early-stage technology company developing next-generation data platforms for highly regulated industries. The team is building a greenfield platform from the ground up, giving engineers the opportunity to shape both the technology and engineering culture as the business grows.
Role
As the Data Platform Engineer, you will take ownership of the organisation's core data platform, ensuring data is accurate, traceable, and readily available across the business. You'll play a key role in designing and developing modern ingestion pipelines, scalable data infrastructure, and evidence capabilities that underpin analytics, reporting, and regulatory requirements.
You'll join a small, highly collaborative engineering team where you'll take ownership of major components of the platform and help establish the technical foundations as the business scales. This is a high-autonomy role with significant influence over architecture, engineering standards, and the future direction of the platform.
Working closely with engineering and product teams, you will help build resilient data services with a strong focus on quality, observability, and operational excellence.
