Ready to Solve Real Problems with Real Data?

4 Days a Week in London – Up to £100k DOE

We’re looking for a sharp, hands-on Senior Data Engineer to join a high-growth digital business tackling big challenges in a fast-paced, data-driven environment. This is your chance to shape the systems that power smart decisions, customer personalisation and serious commercial impact.

The Opportunity

You’ll take the lead on architecting scalable data pipelines, integrating complex APIs, and building reliable, high-throughput systems. Working across batch and real-time streaming environments, you’ll deliver elegant data solutions using tools like Python, Kafka and AWS.

You’ll be more than just a builder – you’ll be a trusted technical voice, collaborating with cross-functional teams and mentoring junior engineers. Your work will directly influence how the business understands and serves its customers.

What You’ll Bring

• 5+ years in data engineering
• Deep Python and SQL expertise
• Strong command of AWS (Redshift, S3, EC2, Lambda)
• Proven Kafka and streaming experience
• Solid ETL pipeline and API integration skills
• Confident working with data governance and security
• Able to lead, mentor and deliver at pace

Nice to Have

• Background in iGaming, eCommerce or other high-volume digital industries
• Degree in Computer Science, Engineering or similar

What’s in it for You

• 4-day workweek – Monday to Thursday in a modern London office
• Up to £100k depending on experience
• Fridays working from home
• Private healthcare, dental cover and wellbeing support
• Access to an onsite gym and yoga studio
• Stock options, bonus scheme and retail discounts
• 25 days’ holiday rising to 30, plus extra perks

This is the one for data engineers who want more than maintenance work. If you’re looking to lead, innovate and build data systems that matter – it’s time to apply.
