Data Quality & Governance Engineer | Challenger Bank

We are looking for a hands-on Data Quality & Governance Engineer to build and run the technical spine that underpins the Data & AI function for a fast-scaling, UK-licensed challenger bank.

This role sits at the intersection of engineering and risk. You will be responsible for building quality, metadata and lineage capabilities directly into the data platform to ensure a single, governed view of all critical assets.

You will be working closely with the Head of Data & AI and senior engineering leads. Your mission is to turn governance policy into automated patterns. Ideally looking for Collate experience for governance however experience with similar platforms (Atlan, OpenMetadata, Collibra, or Alation) is highly valued.

Reasons to use Rodeo

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

It searches the market for you

Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.

Only hits

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

What you will do: Use SQL and Python to implement automated checks, alerts and observability for critical datasets and AI features. Own the technical side of the enterprise data catalogue and glossary. You will ensure that end-to-end lineage—from source to warehouse to AI model—is accurate and functional. Act as the bridge between technical teams and Data Stewards. You'll define Critical Data Elements (CDEs) and ensure everyone understands why specific metrics are being measured. Fix data issues at the source, embed controls (schema validation, PII, data contracts) into pipelines, and help evaluate/introduce new observability tooling.

Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.

What we are looking for: Strong hands-on Python and SQL. You should be comfortable building custom metrics and working within modern stacks (AWS, Redshift, dbt). You understand data lineage, ownership and stewardship. You don’t just know how to use a catalogue; you know why it’s critical for a regulated bank. Background in a Challenger Bank, Fintech or a similarly highly-regulated sector. You understand the pressure of getting calculations up to spec for audit and assurance.
