We’re supporting a fast-growing, well-funded scale-up in their search for a Data Engineer to help build and scale their next-gen talent intelligence platform.

Our client is on a mission to completely reimagine how organisations understand and manage talent, bringing modern data engineering and machine learning together to unlock powerful insights in a sector that’s long overdue for change.

With recent backing from some of Europe’s top early-stage investors and a leadership team that’s previously built high-performing, mission-driven teams, this is a unique opportunity to join a company at a pivotal growth stage. You’ll be joining a collaborative, international team with a people-first mindset, and have a key role in shaping their data foundations.

The Role

As a Lead Data Engineer, you’ll join a newly forming Data team responsible for designing, building, and scaling robust data pipelines, web scrapers, and cloud infrastructure to support a range of machine learning use cases.

  • Design and implement web crawlers and scrapers to extract and structure external data
  • Integrate with third-party APIs and develop internal APIs for data access
  • Set up and optimise data lake/Lakehouse/warehouse environments
  • Collaborate with ML engineers to deploy models into production pipelines
  • Contribute to the overall data architecture and best practices

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong experience building ETL pipelines in cloud environments (ideally AWS)
  • Proficient in Python with solid experience in SQL and NoSQL databases
  • Comfortable with data wrangling, API integrations, and automation
  • Experience with web scraping and large-scale data extraction
  • Exposure to data lakehouse/lake/warehouse architecture
  • Bonus: experience with Docker, GitHub Actions, Terraform, or distributed systems
  • A creative, pragmatic mindset with a passion for clean, scalable solutions
