Data Engineering Manager - Data Products

Technical Manager / Data Manager / Python / AWS

Not every Engineering Manager role is about running sprints or firefighting delivery issues.

This one is about building strong teams, setting clear technical direction, and helping a data platform mature in a way that is sustainable, consistent and genuinely useful to customers.

You will not be coding day to day, but this is not a hands off role either. It suits an Engineering Manager who is comfortable going deep on architecture, data models and trade offs, and who enjoys working closely with senior engineers and tech leads to get the best outcomes.

What you will be responsible for

You will lead engineering across a set of data product teams, with responsibility for both people and outcomes.

That includes:

  • Teams building and maintaining data feeds, datasets and client facing outputs
  • The evolution of shared data models and event schemas, making products more consistent and easier to extend
  • The automation and internal tooling that improves quality and efficiency, including testing, rules engines and AI assisted workflows

You will own direction and delivery across these areas, making sure teams are aligned, supported and focused on the right problems.

What you will be working on day to day

Where to Advertise Data Science Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising data science jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. Data science spans a broad and often misunderstood spectrum — from statistical modelling and experimental design through to machine learning engineering, product analytics and AI research. The strongest candidates identify firmly with specific subdisciplines and are frustrated by adverts that conflate data scientist with data analyst, business intelligence developer or machine learning engineer. General job boards produce high application volumes for data roles but consistently fail to match specialist data science profiles with the right opportunities. This guide, published by DataScienceJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise data science roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

How Many Data Science Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Data Science Job?

If you’re trying to break into data science — or progress your career — it can feel like you are drowning in names: Python, R, TensorFlow, PyTorch, SQL, Spark, AWS, Scikit-learn, Jupyter, Tableau, Power BI…the list just keeps going. With every job advert listing a different combination of tools, many applicants fall into a trap: they try to learn everything. The result? Long tool lists that sound impressive — but little depth to back them up. Here’s the straight-talk version most hiring managers won’t explicitly tell you: 👉 You don’t need to know every data science tool to get hired. 👉 You need to know the right ones — deeply — and know how to use them to solve real problems. Tools matter, but only in service of outcomes. So how many data science tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the answer is not “27” — it’s more like 8–12, thoughtfully chosen and well understood. This guide explains what employers really value, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to focus your toolbox so your CV and interviews shine.
