A defence and national security consultancy is looking for a senior engineer to own the design of its cloud-native data platforms
Title: Data Engineer
Location: London, Cheltenham, Manchester or Surrey
Salary: £55,000 - £85,000 plus DV bonus
Clearance: Active eDV required
Level: Mid/Senior
Tired of keeping pipelines alive? Move into a role where you own the architecture.
The customers are in Defence, Government and National Security, and the datasets are big, messy and multi-source.
You'll work closely with data scientists, software engineers and architects, and directly with the client, so you always know what the platform is for.
What you'll be working on
- Data platforms and pipelines, batch and streaming, built for scale
- Data lakes and cloud-native architecture on AWS or Azure
- Ingesting and integrating data from lots of different sources
- Data foundations for analytics, AI and ML workloads
- DevSecOps and Infrastructure as Code
- Python, SQL, Spark, Docker, Kubernetes and CI/CD
Why it's worth a look
- Real influence over how platforms get designed and built
- Close to the customer and the decision-makers
- Exposure to AI/ML workloads, not just moving data from A to B
Must have: commercial data engineering experience, strong Python and SQL, hands-on Spark, and cloud-native platform experience on AWS or Azure. Comfortable with Docker, Kubernetes and CI/CD.
Nice to have: data modelling and metadata management, AI/ML pipelines and feature engineering.
