Senior Data Engineer

WRK digital is excited to be partnering exclusively with a high-profile, UK-leading organisation, currently shortlisting for a Senior Data Engineer on a permanent basis.

This role sits at the heart of a cloud-first data strategy, helping to build scalable, secure, and high-quality data platforms that support critical, real-world decision-making.

Join Data Services, where you’ll play a key role in designing, automating, and maintaining an Azure-based data platform, unlocking the value of data for strategic decision-making across the organisation.

A typical day might start with a team stand-up, discussing ongoing projects and any blockers.

You’ll work on designing, building, and automating our Azure data platform (including Data Factory, Databricks, Data Lake Storage, Key Vault, SQL DB, and Azure Management Service).

You’ll develop and integrate CI/CD pipelines, implement standard methodologies for monitoring and observability, and ensure robust data governance and security.

You’ll also mentor colleagues, drive continuous improvement, and support live initiatives, including participation in a support rota.

Flexibility is built in, with opportunities to collaborate across locations and upskill within a supportive team environment.

• Proven experience in platform engineering, cloud infrastructure, or Dev Ops roles within complex, data-centric environments.
• Hands-on expertise with Microsoft Azure data services and automation tools (Terraform, Git Hub Actions, Python, Power Shell, Bash).
• Strong background in developing CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure as code.
• Excellent communication, collaboration, and stakeholder management skills.
• Commitment to continuous learning and sharing knowledge.
