Description
Data Engineer - Leeds (Hybrid)
Gain experience with enterprise level projects at a "data-first" company that is free of legacy systems and corporate bureaucracy!
The Opportunity:
As a Data Engineer, you will build and maintain the pipelines and infrastructure that turn messy, high-volume data into clean, reliable inputs for the company's core platform. Because data is the product here, you won't be playing second fiddle to any other function; your work has a direct, visible line to what the business actually sells, and you'll be able to point to measurable impact quickly. There is zero legacy system maintenance in this role: the infrastructure is modern and cloud-native, so your time goes into solving real engineering problems rather than firefighting old technical debt. This is a hands-on, mid-level role suited to someone with a few years' commercial experience who wants genuine ownership rather than being one of many engineers in a large, siloed team.
What You'll Be Doing
● Designing, building and maintaining ETL/ELT pipelines across structured and semi-structured data sources
● Writing efficient, well-tested SQL and Python to transform and model data at scale ● Working with modern cloud data warehousing tools to support analytics and machine
learning workloads ● Collaborating closely with data scientists and analysts to ensure data is trustworthy,
well-documented and fit for purpose ● Monitoring, troubleshooting and improving data quality and pipeline performance ● Contributing ideas to the evolving data architecture as the platform scales
Requirements:
● Strong SQL skills, plus solid commercial experience with Python ● Experience building and maintaining data pipelines in a cloud environment (AWS,
Azure, GCP or Snowflake) ● Exposure to FMCG or retail data i.e. sales, loyalty, pricing, product or customer data,
is desirable. ● Must be based within a reasonable commutable distance to Leeds
On Offer
● Salary up to £55,000 ● Annual Bonus ● Hybrid, flexible working ● 26 days annual leave +BH ● Fully paid day off per year to volunteer or support a charitable cause of your choice ● On-demand training AND an annual training budget
Please note that only candidates within a reasonably commutable distance of Leeds, and full right to work will be considered.
