Job Description

As a Senior Data Engineer specialising in Python and Databricks, you will design, build, and optimise data pipeline solutions on Azure Databricks and related cloud platforms.

You will join a collaborative, agile team where continuous improvement, innovation, and knowledge sharing are part of the culture.

• Work closely with data scientists, analysts, and other stakeholders to understand data requirements and deliver effective pipeline solutions.
• Design, develop, and maintain robust ETL/ELT pipelines on Azure using Databricks (Spark) along with services like Azure Data Factory and Synapse, to ingest, process, and transform large datasets.
• Implement data validation, cleansing, and governance procedures to guarantee data quality, integrity, and security. This includes enforcing data standards and addressing data quality issues proactively.
• Continuously improve the scalability, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness of data pipelines. Identify opportunities to enhance performance, reliability, and cost-efficiency across our data systems.
• Monitor data pipeline performance and promptly troubleshoot any issues or failures to ensure high data availability and consistency. Leverage observability tools and best practices to maintain reliable pipelines.
• Develop streaming or event-driven data processes as needed for real-time analytics, leveraging frameworks like Apache Kafka and Spark Structured Streaming.
• Maintain clear documentation of data pipelines, data models, and processes for transparency and team knowledge sharing. Follow best practices in coding, testing, and version control to ensure maintainable and auditable workflows.
  
  

Qualifications

• Solid understanding of data warehousing concepts and dimensional data modeling (e.g. star schema, Kimball methodology).
• Hands-on experience with relational database systems and SQL (e.g. SQL Server, PostgreSQL) and familiarity with NoSQL databases (e.g. MongoDB, Cassandra) for varied data storage needs.
• Strong experience designing and implementing ETL/ELT processes and integrating data from multiple sources.
• Proven experience working with cloud data platforms, especially Microsoft Azure.
• Expertise in Azure Databricks and the Spark ecosystem for large-scale data processing is required (experience with Delta Lake, Azure Data Lake Storage, Azure Data Factory/Synapse is highly valued).
• Familiarity with data pipeline orchestration and automation tools (e.g. Azure Data Factory, Apache Airflow, or Azure Functions) and with CI/CD pipelines for deploying data workflows.
• Experience monitoring data pipeline performance and using observability tools to ensure data reliability is a plus.
• Exposure to event-driven architectures and streaming data tools (such as Apache Kafka or Spark Streaming) is beneficial for handling real-time data flows.
• Experience working in Agile teams with iterative development, and a collaborative approach to problem-solving.
• Holding a current Databricks certification (e.g. Databricks Certified Data Engineer) is a strong advantage.
• Background in or understanding of data from the energy, resources, or mining industry is a plus, as it will help in delivering business-focused insights in these sectors.
