They are one of Scotland's best known tech organisations, and they thrive on a positive and welcoming culture, making it one of the best places to work. They are a hybrid organisation and ask all employees to be in office twice a week in Edinburgh - what days those are, are flexible.

The role:

You will be managing a predominantly Agile and small team of 6 to 12 (including you), of mainly Data Engineers of varying levels. The team are currently without a Manager, due to some internal promotions, and they need someone to help steer the ship. They are looking for people from a strong and innovative Data Engineering background and experience of managing small and Agile teams. It would be great too if you have an understanding of Data Architecture as well as an input into systems design. The key however really is on the development of the team and making sure they grow and develop as individuals.

As you will be working in a small team, but a larger organisation, you will need to have strong stakeholder management skills, up to and including board level.

The teams generally use a combination ofPython, Databricks, PySpark and AWS, and it is likely that you will come from this background and have managed teams in this stack. Although it is a management position, the ability to still look at Code Reviews and be a little hands-on and technical would be beneficial.

Package & Office/Location:

You can expect all the perks of a modern software company, including: a stunning custom-built office in the city centre, breakout rooms, pool tables, regular social events, top of the range kit and a very flexible approach to working hours and indeed, work life balance.
