  • Taking full end-to-end ownership of the systems that support rapid experimentation in a production environment
  • Analysing data to inform and improve technical and commercial decision making

Key Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering or a related discipline
  • At least 6 years of engineering experience, including at least 4 years focused on data or ML engineering
  • Expert-level capability in designing, writing and maintaining data pipelines and systems with a strong emphasis on data quality
  • Strong command of SQL, Python 3 and a JVM-based language such as Java or Scala
  • Solid grounding in software design, design patterns, functional programming and object-oriented programming
  • Comfortable working across a stack including Python 3, Scala Spark, Hadoop, SQL and S3
  • Familiarity with general machine learning concepts and common models such as regularisation and tree-based models
  • Familiarity with statistical analysis concepts such as p-values and z-scores
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving ability, with a data-driven engineering mindset
  • Experience with Hadoop ecosystems, big data architecture, agile and test-driven development, or Linux systems administration would be an advantage

If you are an experienced Data Engineer looking to work on large-scale data and ML platforms within a highly technical, internationally diverse engineering team, we would be glad to hear from you.
