About the Role

We’re partnering with a high-growth, technology-led financial services organisation building a modern Data & AI Platform to power analytics, machine learning, and next-generation AI capabilities across the business.
This is a hands-on engineering role within a small, high-impact team responsible for designing and scaling the foundations that enable trusted data, advanced analytics, and production-grade AI solutions.
Depending on your strengths, you may focus on:
  • Building and scaling robust data pipelines and infrastructure
  • Developing reusable platform patterns and guardrails
  • Enabling product teams to safely deploy AI-driven features
  • Operationalising machine learning and generative AI solutions
You’ll work closely with engineering, product, risk, and cloud teams to deliver secure, scalable, and production-ready data and AI capabilities.

What You’ll Be

Doing Build & Scale the Data Platform
  • Design, build and maintain scalable data pipelines and integrations
  • Manage ingestion, transformation and quality across cloud data warehouses
  • Improve reliability, performance and observability across the data stack
  • Apply modern DevOps and infrastructure-as-code practices
Enable AI & Advanced Analytics
  • Support the deployment of machine learning and generative AI solutions into production
  • Build strong data foundations and feature pipelines for AI experimentation
  • Develop reusable templates and reference architectures for training, inference and deployment
  • Enable squads to safely ship AI capabilities within defined governance frameworks
Deliver Business Impact
  • Partner with cross-functional teams to support analytics, reporting and AI use cases
  • Develop APIs, data products and trusted datasets for enterprise consumption
  • Continuously enhance scalability, resilience and security of the platform
Champion Governance & Quality
  • Embed best practices in testing, version control and security
  • Support compliance within regulated environments
  • Promote responsible and ethical AI practices

What You’ll Bring
  • Strong experience with cloud-based data platforms (AWS preferred)
  • Hands-on experience with Snowflake or modern cloud data warehouses
  • Experience with streaming or distributed processing technologies (e.g. Kafka, Spark, Kinesis, Flink)
  • Strong software engineering skills in Python, Scala, Java or Kotlin
  • Exposure to machine learning or AI systems in production environments
  • Familiarity with MLOps, feature stores, or vector databases (highly regarded)
  • Experience with infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD practices
  • Understanding of governance, security and data quality in regulated industries

Why Apply?
  • Work on real-world AI use cases beyond experimentation
  • Influence architecture in a growing data and AI platform
  • Join a lean, high-impact team with strong executive backing
  • Build systems that directly power product innovation and business growth
