  • Using DevOps methodologies to automate, monitor and improve the development and deployment processes
  • Developing and maintaining robust monitoring and alerting frameworks to ensure proactive identification and resolution of issues, fostering a culture of reliability and operational excellence within the data engineering team
  • Collaborating with the data science community to productionise code based on models developed
  • Coaching and mentoring data engineers
  • Communicating and corroborating with business stakeholders to understand, prioritize, and manage workloads and maintain platform performance

Ideally, you’ll bring to the role:

  • Commercial experience in a Senior Data Engineer role, ideally within the energy industry
  • Referenceable experience designing and developing metadata-based ELT frameworks
  • designing and developing Databricks, Python, Scala or Java code against large-scale, cloud-based data warehouses that make use of big-data frameworks like Spark, Kafka, Hive and Map-Reduce
