Senior Data Engineer | Remote (UK) | £80,000 - £90,000
Peaple Talent is partnering with a leading organisation to recruit a Senior Data Engineer specialising in Data Modelling.
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Data Engineer who is passionate about the craft of dimensional modelling and enjoys turning complex, messy source data into clear, trusted data models that the wider business can rely on.
You'll play a key role within the data engineering community, working closely with business stakeholders to understand real-world processes and translate them into intuitive, domain-aligned dimensional models. From there, you'll design and evolve Kimball-style models, build transformations and semantic layers in dbt, and help establish best practice across the wider engineering team.
This is a hands-on, deeply technical position where you'll have the opportunity to influence how data is modelled, understood and used across a large and complex organisation.
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'll Bring:
- Several years of hands-on experience designing and delivering dimensional data models within production data warehouse environments
- Strong experience with Kimball methodology, including facts, dimensions, grain and conformed dimensions
- Proven ability to translate business processes and stakeholder requirements into clear, scalable and domain-aligned data models
- Strong SQL skills and deep practical experience using dbt for data transformation and modelling
- Experience working with slowly changing dimensions, late-arriving facts and wider dimensional modelling principles
- A strong understanding of data quality, testing and documentation
- Ability to communicate modelling decisions clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
- A genuine passion for clean data design, sensible modelling practices and building models that stand the test of time
