About the role

I’m working with an established PayTech business that is looking to hire a Senior Data Engineer into a newly created role.

Reporting directly to the CTO, you’ll take ownership of the company’s data platform, covering everything from data ingestion and warehouse modelling through to reporting, KPIs and dashboards used across the business.

What you will do

  • Owning and developing the data platform
  • Building and maintaining data ingestion pipelines
  • Developing the cloud data warehouse and transformation layer
  • Improving data quality, testing and monitoring
  • Building MI, KPI views and dashboards
  • Working directly with the CTO, CFO, COO and CRO on reporting and business metrics
  • Investigating data issues and identifying the root cause
  • Delivering new data capabilities as the business grows
  • Improving CI/CD, documentation and data governance

What we are looking for

  • Strong experience working with modern cloud data platforms, ideally using BigQuery or Snowflake, alongside Dataform or dbt.
  • Comfortable working across the full data lifecycle, from bringing data into the platform and building reliable transformation pipelines through to producing trusted datasets, reporting and dashboards for the wider business.
  • Previous ownership of a data platform or significant parts of one, and comfortable working directly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Experience with GCP, BigQuery, Dataform, Airbyte, Fivetran or Metabase would be useful, but we’re more interested in the right overall experience than an exact technology match.
  • Experience working in a start-up, scale-up or smaller data team would also be useful, as this is a hands-on role with a high level of autonomy.

The package

Salary: £75,000 to £80,000 plus bonus.

Location: South London, hybrid with three days per week onsite.
