Job description

You will sit within the Data and Platform function, working closely with Data Science, Engineering, and Product teams to design and run reliable, scalable data systems. Key responsibilities include:

  • Designing and owning batch and streaming data ingestion pipelines on AWS
  • Building and maintaining ML ready datasets to support model training, inference, and experimentation
  • Improving data warehouse design and performance within AWS Redshift, including refactoring poorly structured data
  • Integrating new and underused data sources to unlock additional value
  • Supporting feature store development and data pipelines for A/B testing and analytics tools
  • Optimising data systems for cost, performance, reliability, and data freshness
  • Contributing to greenfield initiatives while scaling existing data infrastructure handling very high volumes of event data

Requirements

  • Strong commercial experience building production grade data pipelines using Python and SQL
  • Hands on experience with AWS data services such as S3, Redshift, Glue, Athena, and streaming technologies like Kinesis
  • Experience working with large scale, high velocity event data and understanding the trade offs around cost, performance, and reliability
  • Ability to think beyond implementation and understand how data supports business and product outcomes
  • Comfortable collaborating across Data, Engineering, and Product in a fast moving environment
  • Exposure to ML or analytics use cases, including preparing data for modelling or experimentation, is highly beneficial
