Opportunity Description

Lead Data Engineer

Hands‑on technical leadership building data systems that actually work

We're looking for a Lead Data Engineer to join an enterprise data engineering capability and play a critical role in designing, building, and improving real‑world data systems.

This is not a line‑management role. Instead, it's a senior, hands‑on technical leadership position for someone with deep data engineering experience who leads through delivery, judgement, and technical credibility rather than hierarchy.

You'll work in a complex environment spanning legacy platforms, modern cloud services, and evolving data needs. The challenge isn't greenfield design - it's improving what exists, fixing what's broken, and helping teams use data more effectively and responsibly. This role suits someone who enjoys rolling up their sleeves, tackling difficult problems, and seeing things through end‑to‑end.
