Job Ref: J12931


A leader in consumer behaviour analytics, seeks a driven AWS Data Engineer to guide data infrastructure architecture, working alongside a small talented team of engineers, analysts, and data scientists. In this role, you’ll enhance the data platform, develop advanced data pipelines, and integrate cutting-edge technologies like DataOps and Generative AI, including Large Language Models (LLMs).

You’ll have proven experience developing AWS Cloud platforms end to end, orchestrating data using Dagster or similar as well as coding in Python and SQL. This is an exciting opportunity for someone looking to challenge themselves in a collaborative environment, with scope to be instrumental in the scaling of the data infrastructure.


Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and optimize ETL/ELT processes to support data transformation and integrity for analytics.
  • Explore and evaluate new data warehousing solutions, including Snowflake, to improve data accessibility and scalability.
  • Partner with product and engineering teams to define data architecture and best practices for reporting.
  • Ensure data security, compliance, and governance across data systems.
  • Implement and maintain CI/CD pipelines to automate data workflows and enhance system reliability.
  • Identify, design, and implement internal process improvements: automating manual processes, optimizing data delivery, re-designing infrastructure for greater scalability and performance.


Essential Skills and Experience:

  • Hands-on experience with AWS services, including Lambda, Glue, Athena, RDS, and S3.
  • Strong SQL skills for data transformation, cleaning, and loading.
  • Strong coding experience with Python and Pandas.
  • Experience with any flavour of data pipeline and workflow management tools: Dagster, Celery, Airflow, etc.
  • Build processes supporting data transformation, data structures, metadata, dependency and workload management.
  • Experience supporting and working with cross-functional teams in a dynamic environment.
  • Strong communication skills to collaborate with remote teams (US, Canada)


Nice to Have

  • Familiarity with LLMs including fine-tuning and RAG.
  • Knowledge of Statistics
  • Knowledge of DataOps best practices, including CI/CD for data workflows.

Quantum-Enhanced AI in Data Science: Embracing the Next Frontier

Data science has undergone a staggering transformation in the past decade, evolving from a niche academic discipline into a linchpin of modern industry. Across every sector—finance, healthcare, retail, manufacturing—data scientists have become indispensable, leveraging statistical methods and machine learning to turn raw information into actionable insights. Yet as datasets grow ever larger and machine learning models become more computationally expensive, there are genuine questions about how far current methods can be pushed. Enter quantum computing, a nascent but promising technology grounded in the counterintuitive principles of quantum mechanics. Often dismissed just a few years ago as purely experimental, quantum computing is quickly gaining traction as prototypes evolve into cloud-accessible machines. When paired with artificial intelligence—particularly in the realm of data science—the results could be game-changing. From faster model training and complex optimisation to entirely new forms of data analysis, quantum-enhanced AI stands poised to disrupt established practices and create new opportunities. In this article, we will: Explore how data science has reached its current limits in certain areas, and why classical hardware might no longer suffice. Provide an accessible overview of quantum computing concepts and how they differ from classical systems. Examine the potential of quantum-enhanced AI to solve key data science challenges, from data wrangling to advanced machine learning. Highlight real-world applications, emerging job roles, and the skills you need to thrive in this new landscape. Offer actionable steps for data professionals eager to stay ahead of the curve in a rapidly evolving field. Whether you’re a practising data scientist, a student weighing up your future specialisations, or an executive curious about the next technological leap, read on. The quantum era may be closer than you think, and it promises to radically transform the very fabric of data science.
