Are you a data technologist who enjoys taking ownership? You could be progressing your career in a senior, hands-on Data Engineer role at a technology start-up that is producing a software suite for legal firms that massively reduces para-legal workloads. They have seen huge interest in the product and have a lot of greenfield development work to get stuck into.


As a Senior Data Engineer you will take ownership of the data platform, optimising it for scalability to ensure successful client onboarding. You'll use modern tools (such as Airflow, Prefect, Dagster or AWS Step Functions) for ETL design and orchestration, work on transformation logic to clean, validate and enrich data (including handling missing values, standardising formats and duplication), use Redshift for efficient loading strategies and write ETL pipelines that handle large volumes of data efficiently, with low latency.


Location / WFH: You'll join a small but growing team based in Central Manchester three days a week with flexibility to work from home the other two days.


Responsibilities

  • Take ownership of the data platform and optimise it for scalability and client onboarding.
  • Design and orchestrate ETL pipelines using modern tooling (Airflow, Prefect, Dagster or AWS Step Functions).
  • Develop transformation logic to clean, validate and enrich data (handle missing values, standardise formats, deduplicate).
  • Implement efficient loading strategies with Redshift.
  • Deliver pipelines that process large data volumes with low latency.
  • Collaborate with teams and communicate effectively.

Qualifications

  • Senior Data Engineer with strong knowledge of modern software engineering practices.
  • In-depth AWS experience across storage, compute and orchestration services.
  • Strong Python scripting/coding skills for data wrangling and pipeline development.
  • Strong SQL and NoSQL skills for complex transformations and validation queries.
  • Experience with Docker and CI/CD for deployment.
  • Collaborative with excellent communication skills.

What's in it for you

As a Senior Data Engineer you will receive a competitive package:



  • Salary to £110k
  • 25 days holiday
  • Pension
  • Hybrid working (three days office in Manchester)
  • Impactful role with excellent career progression opportunities as the company scales

Why Data Science Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Data science once meant advanced statistics, machine learning models and coding in Python or R. In the UK today, it has become one of the most in-demand professions across sectors — from healthcare to finance, retail to government. But as the field matures, employers now expect more than technical modelling skills. Modern data science is multidisciplinary. It requires not just coding and algorithms, but also legal knowledge, ethical reasoning, psychological insight, linguistic clarity and human-centred design. Data scientists are expected to interpret, communicate and apply data responsibly, with awareness of law, human behaviour and accessibility. In this article, we’ll explore why data science careers in the UK are becoming more multidisciplinary, how these five disciplines intersect with data science, and what job-seekers & employers need to know to succeed in this transformed field.

Data Science Team Structures Explained: Who Does What in a Modern Data Science Department

Data science is one of the most in-demand, dynamic, and multidisciplinary areas in the UK tech and business landscape.
