Data Engineering Lead

Take responsibility for data engineering in a growing company. This hands‑on Python role would suit an experienced data engineering lead. To the rest of the business, you will provide the answers the business needs, in plain language. Behind the scenes, you will become the technical authority on a new platform, making good use of the abundant data in hand, architecting and developing new systems towards these needs, and growing the team for the future.

You’ll have:

• Strong software engineering skills in Python, including excellent knowledge of the Python language, use of design patterns, SOLID principles, databases, cloud deployment, source control and CI/CD.
• Led data engineering projects, with a focus on building and maintaining scalable data pipelines, data lakes or lakehouse architectures.
• Project management and team leadership skills.
• The ability to communicate clearly and effectively with non‑technical stakeholders.
• Good attention to detail, a positive attitude, flexibility, collaboration, and engagement with clients, building good relationships.

You’d join a forward‑looking company with a people‑focused and environmentally friendly mission towards a low carbon future. The role has significant autonomy, as you will encapsulate the technical aspects of the data engineering function of the business, help them make the most of available data, exploring it and delivering clear answers. Fully remote work is an option, and flexible and/or reduced hours may be considered.
