Senior Data Engineer
Location: Fully Remote (UK)
Salary: £65,000 - £70,000
Contract: Permanent, Full-Time
We're partnering with a growing organisation looking to expand its data team with the addition of a Senior Data Engineer. This is a hands-on role working across a modern data environment, with responsibility for building, developing, and optimising data pipelines and platforms that support reporting, analytics, and wider business decision-making.
You'll work closely with both technical and non-technical stakeholders and will have genuine ownership of the solutions you build. We're looking for someone who is confident working with modern data engineering technologies and, importantly, has real commercial experience using them in production rather than simply exposure to them.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and maintain robust, scalable data pipelines and integration solutions
- Work extensively with Databricks to develop and support modern data engineering solutions
- Build and maintain data transformation models using dbt
- Develop and manage data orchestration workflows using tools such as Azure Data Factory, Apache Airflow, or similar
- Write, optimise, and troubleshoot complex SQL
- Work with stakeholders to understand data requirements and translate these into effective technical solutions
- Improve data quality, reliability, performance, and monitoring across the data platform
- Contribute to data architecture, engineering standards, and best practices
- Support the delivery of data-driven projects across the business
