Job Overview. We are seeking a skilled Data Engineer to join our dynamic team. The ideal candidate will be responsible for designing, constructing, and maintaining scalable data pipelines and architectures. You will work closely with data scientists and analysts to ensure the efficient flow of data across various platforms and systems, enabling insightful analysis and decision-making. We are looking for a Data Engineer to join our growing Data and Analytics team. This is ideal for someone with a solid foundation in data engineering who wants to develop deeper skills in Azure Databricks and Microsoft Fabric. You will play a key role in developing and maintaining modern data pipelines, shaping the meta data driver architecture, and building high-quality data models that power reporting and advanced analytics across the business.


Responsibilities

  • Develop and maintain robust data pipelines using technologies such as AWS, Hadoop, and Spark.
  • Design and implement database solutions for both structured and unstructured data using Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to understand data requirements and translate them into technical specifications.
  • Perform data modelling and database design to optimise performance and scalability.
  • Conduct data analysis to identify trends, patterns, and anomalies in large datasets.
  • Utilise programming languages such as Python and Java for data manipulation and transformation tasks.
  • Implement ETL processes using tools like Informatica to ensure seamless data integration.
  • Write efficient SQL queries for data retrieval, reporting, and analysis.
  • Create documentation for data processes, workflows, and system architecture.
  • Employ shell scripting (Bash) for automation of routine tasks.
  • Build and maintain scalable data pipelines in Azure Databricks and Microsoft Fabric using PySpark and Python.
  • Support the meta driven architecture (raw, enriched, curated layers) to ensure a clean separation of raw, refined, and curated data.
  • Design and implement dimensional models such as star schemas and slowly changing dimensions.
  • Work closely with analysts, governance, and engineering teams to translate business requirements into data solutions.
  • Apply data governance and lineage principles to ensure documentation, traceability, and quality.
  • Test, monitor, and optimise pipelines for accuracy and performance.

Qualifications

  • Proven experience in a Data Engineering role or similar position.
  • Strong knowledge of big data technologies including Hadoop, Apache Hive, and Spark.
  • Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, Java, VBA, and shell scripting (Bash).
  • Experience with database design principles and management of relational databases (Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server).
  • Familiarity with data warehousing concepts and best practices.
  • Excellent analytical skills with the ability to interpret complex datasets effectively.
  • Strong problem-solving abilities coupled with attention to detail.
  • Ability to work collaboratively in a team environment while also being self-motivated.

Nice to Have

  • Familiarity with Agile delivery principles.
  • Interest in gaining the Microsoft Fabric Data Engineer certification (supported by the business).
  • Strong SQL and Python skills with hands-on experience in PySpark.
  • Exposure to Azure Databricks, Microsoft Fabric, or similar cloud data platforms.
  • Understanding of Delta Lake, Git, and CI/CD workflows.

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.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Data Science Job Applications (UK Guide)

If you’re applying for data science roles in the UK, it’s crucial to understand what hiring managers focus on before they dive into your full CV. In competitive markets, recruiters and hiring managers often make their first decisions in the first 10–20 seconds of scanning an application — and in data science, there are specific signals they look for first. Data science isn’t just about coding or statistics — it’s about producing insights, shipping models, collaborating with teams, and solving real business problems. This guide helps you understand exactly what hiring managers look for first in data science applications — and how to structure your CV, portfolio and cover letter so you leap to the top of the shortlist.

Education

The Skills Gap in Data Science Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Data science has become one of the most visible and sought-after careers in the UK technology market. From financial services and retail to healthcare, media, government and sport, organisations increasingly rely on data scientists to extract insight, guide decisions and build predictive models. Universities have responded quickly. Degrees in data science, analytics and artificial intelligence have expanded rapidly, and many computer science courses now include data-focused pathways. And yet, despite the volume of graduates entering the market, employers across the UK consistently report the same problem: Many data science candidates are not job-ready. Vacancies remain open. Hiring processes drag on. Candidates with impressive academic backgrounds fail interviews or struggle once hired. The issue is not intelligence or effort. It is a persistent skills gap between university education and real-world data science roles. This article explores that gap in depth: what universities teach well, what they often miss, why the gap exists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build successful careers in data science.
