    JOB  SUMMARY

    What you will be doing…

    • Own pipeline code, DBT models, and SQL transformations end-to-end; uphold team-level quality standards and act as first reviewer for junior PRs
    • Direct AI agents through complex, multi-step data engineering tasks; contribute effective prompts and orchestration patterns to the shared team prompt library
    • Evaluate AI-generated pipeline code, SQL, and dbt models for correctness, performance, security, and architectural alignment before merge
    • Build and maintain high-performance Snowflake pipelines — including schema design, RLS policies, query optimisation, cost management, and warehouse sizing
    • Design, develop, and maintain dbt models, tests, macros, and packages at production scale
    • Administer and tune AWS RDS databases across Postgres, MySQL, and MS SQL — schema design, performance tuning, query optimisation, index management, and backup/recovery
    • Build and maintain AWS-based data infrastructure using S3, Glue, Lambda, Kinesis, and EMR; apply IaC practices (Terraform or CloudFormation)
    • Manage workflow orchestration using Apache Airflow or equivalent, including retry strategies, observability, and production-grade reliability patterns
    • Design and implement automated data quality monitoring and validation frameworks; own data quality incidents from detection through to resolution and postmortem
    • Own ISO 27001 evidence collection for team pipelines and data assets; implement RLS, masking, and data access controls for sensitive HR and employee data
    • Mentor junior Data Engineers through PR review, pairing, and structured feedback

    Skills and Experiences:
    Must haves:

    • Strong AWS RDS DBA experience across Postgres (Aurora), MySQL (Aurora), and MS SQL — schema design, query optimisation, index management, performance tuning, and backup/recovery
    • Solid data engineering experience, ideally with a DBA background who has expanded into the modern data stack (Snowflake, dbt, Python)
    • Deep, hands-on Snowflake experience — query optimisation, cost management, RLS, schema design, and performance tuning
    • Proficient with DBT (models, tests, macros, packages) at production scale
    • Strong Python scripting and advanced SQL for transformations, automation, and tooling
    • Hands-on with AWS data services (S3, Glue, Lambda, Kinesis, EMR) and IaC (Terraform or CloudFormation)
    • Demonstrated experience building tools or automations using AI — Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, multi-step prompting, or multi-agent orchestration
    • Strong workflow orchestration experience (Apache Airflow, AWS Step Functions, or equivalent)
    • Familiarity with ISO 27001 data security obligations and compliance-aware data engineering practices
    • Strong written and verbal communication; comfortable engaging with non-technical stakeholders across Analytics, Product, and the business

    Nice to have:

    • Experience with Apache Kafka and Apache Flink — consumer/producer patterns, partition strategies, CDC, and schema evolution
    • Exposure to AI/ML data pipelines — embedding generation, vector store ingestion, Bedrock knowledge base preparation, or training data management
    • Industry certification: SnowPro Advanced: Data Engineer, AWS Data Analytics Specialty, dbt Advanced, or equivalent
