Job Description
Role Overview
Key Responsibilities
- Designing and building robust, production-grade data pipelines on Databricks, making appropriate use of current platform capabilities such as Spark Declarative Pipelines (SDP)
- Working “under the hood” to optimise the platform for performance and cost — tuning compute, jobs and queries, managing storage and table layout, and keeping platform spend under control
- Defining and maintaining consistent business metrics and a semantic layer (for example, using Metric Views) so reporting is built on trusted, reusable definitions
- Integrating data from core business systems, including SAP S/4HANA, and other sources, using tools such as Fivetran (both SaaS connectors and HVR)
- Setting and upholding engineering standards across the team — code quality, testing, documentation, CI/CD and data governance
- Coaching and mentoring junior and mid-level engineers, reviewing their work and helping them develop
- Partnering with business stakeholders to understand their needs, shape practical solutions and ensure the platform delivers genuine value
- Engaging data owners in Finance and IT to ensure data is well understood, valid and fit for purpose, and initiating data quality improvements where required
