## Description

Invecta is working exclusively with a specialty insurer to build out a data engineering and AI transformation team. The Senior Data Engineer will help design, deliver and embed modern data engineering and analytics capability within the pricing and analytics function.

This is a high-impact role, central to the organisation's ambition to become a genuinely data-driven business, where analytical insight underpins pricing, portfolio analytics and wider business decision-making.

The successful candidate will operate as an embedded member of a small, senior pricing and analytics team, with a particular focus on the Snowflake data platform, hands-on delivery, and the ongoing development of team capability.

The work centres on Snowflake: the ETL pipelines, analytical datasets, dashboards and APIs that pricing actuaries and analysts rely on, plus proofs of concept for what's next.
