The posting

Are you ready to shape the backbone of a data‑driven organisation? NewDay are looking for a Data Engineer to help us design, build, and evolve the core pipelines and platforms that power analytics, reporting, and sophisticated data science across our business.

Why this role matters

You’ll play a central role in ensuring data flows reliably and efficiently at scale. You will directly enable faster insights, smarter decision‑making, and a resilient data ecosystem that supports everything from operational reporting to ground breaking modelling.

How you'll contribute

  • Developing and improving ingestion and transformation pipelines using technologies such as Spark, Scala, Python, AWS, DBT, and Snowflake
  • Owning and improving the organisation's Data Lake environment and data platform. Ensuring it remains robust, scalable, and future‑ready
  • Owning ETL processing, table refreshes, defect resolution, and other BAU activities
  • Continuously optimising performance through concurrency, multi‑threading, automation, and best‑practice engineering patterns
  • Working within Agile delivery frameworks to ship high‑quality, cloud‑native data solutions via CI/CD
  • Integrating data from multiple sources and solving sophisticated data challenges with creativity.
  • Design and develop modular, reusable scalable and configurable data engineering solutions that adhere to the D.R.Y principle, minimising manual intervention and promote automation.

We're looking for these essential skills

  • Hands-on experience with DBT and Apache Airflow, building scalable data transformations and DAGs to orchestrate complex, reliable data pipelines.
  • Manage task dependencies, automated retries and error handling to ensure reliable pipeline execution with minimal manual intervention.
  • Engineering experience using Python and SQL, with the ability to solve complex data problems at scale.
  • The ability to design and guide modern data engineering solutions, with knowledge of data modelling, ETL/ELT, data warehousing and scalable data pipelines.
  • The ability to lead and develop Data Engineers, combining hands-on technical contribution with coaching, technical direction and ownership of delivery.
  • An interest in AI and automation, with the technical curiosity to explore how emerging technologies could improve engineering quality, productivity and ways of working.

We know great candidates don't always meet every requirement. If you have strong data engineering foundations, hands-on DBT experience and experience solving sophisticated problems at scale, we'd encourage you to apply even if you haven't worked with every technology listed above.

The impact you’ll make

Your work will strengthen the foundation of our entire data landscape. By improving reliability, reducing manual intervention, and accelerating time to insight, you’ll help unlock new opportunities for analytics, innovation, and strategic growth.

Externally this job title might also be known as Data Platform Engineer.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
