The Data Engineer is a hybrid data professional with two equally important areas of responsibility. The role acts as Vodafone Oman’s day-to-day technical owner for the vendor-led implementation and operation of the enterprise lakehouse, assuring architecture, engineering quality, delivery, security, reliability, documentation, and knowledge transfer. In parallel, the role uses enterprise data to conduct analysis, generate actionable insights, develop analytical data products, and support evidence-based commercial and operational decisions.
The role bridges data platform engineering and applied analytics, ensuring that the lakehouse is both technically robust and actively used to create measurable business value.
