Data Engineer, Technology Consulting

Would you like to be part of a fast-growing technology and engineering organisation that nurtures an open, collaborative learning environment? Are you passionate about technology, people and developing your coding skills? If this describes you, we’re trying to create the best engineering consultancy in the UK and would love for you to be part of the journey.

We draw on our reputation for outstanding delivery to allow our engineers to do the right thing for our clients, and not necessarily the easy thing. Innovation is in our DNA, and we encourage our engineers and consultants to work together to rethink conventional wisdom on how problems should be solved.

Our engineers take a holistic approach that addresses technology, process, and structure to make a lasting impact. At Credera, you will work on diverse client projects, such as building modern data platforms and services using DevOps practices, including large, distributed workloads, batch and streaming data pipelines as well as high-quality monitoring. Working with architects, technology consultants and client stakeholders, you will help customers make use of the data available to them while gaining exposure to different industries, networks and latest technologies.

Based out of any of our UK offices, this is a permanent role within our Data Function. At Credera, we operate a flexible hybrid working model. This requires 3 days per week working onsite - either at client site (as required) or in your local Credera office (London, Manchester, Leeds or Newcastle). We value collaboration and client impact, so our hybrid model is designed to strike a balance between flexibility, in-person connection, and delivering exceptional outcomes for our clients.

Requirements

As an Engineer at Credera, you will spend most of your time on client work, with the remainder of your time spent working on internal projects as well as training and development. Consultancy to us is about customer delivery first, carried out by technically excellent people. Our aim is not to pigeon-hole but rather upskill our engineers so they can learn and expand their expertise, as well as deliver on a variety of business-critical client projects.

You are perceptive, personable, culturally sensitive and demonstrate a high degree of emotional intelligence. Being able to work collaboratively in a matrix organisation is essential, as is the ability to build data platforms using either cloud native products or commercial data analytics / data warehouse software.

You will have:

• Demonstrable experience of building data pipelines using Spark or Pandas
• Experience working with one or more of the main cloud providers (AWS, Azure or Google)
• Experience of big data platforms (EMR, Databricks or DataProc)
• Experience with data platforms such as Data Lakes, Data Warehouses or Data Meshes
• Have a drive for self-improvement and learning, including learning new programming languages
• Approach solving problems pragmatically
• Experience supporting and operating production systems

Desirable skills:

• Experience of building automated data quality checks and metrics
• Experience creating and/or maintaining production software delivery pipelines using common CI/CD tools (GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, Jenkins, CircleCI etc.)
• Experience productionising machine learning algorithms
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, ARM templates etc.)
• Experience with data reporting and visualisation tools (Power BI, Tableau, Qlik etc.)

Benefits

Along with a great company culture, Credera provides an exceptional compensation package including a competitive salary (£41,000-£50,000) and a comprehensive benefits plan. Our consistent growth and entrepreneurial environment provide an excellent platform to embark upon an exciting career path, where your contribution really counts.
