5V Tech are supporting a leading manufacturing company driving digital transformation on the shop floor. They are looking for a Senior Industrial Data & Analytics Engineer to build and operationalize data-driven systems that transform factory performance.

This is not about producing reports, it is about creating automated, actionable insights that drive real impact across manufacturing operations.

This is a high-visibility, hands‑on role where you will shape the digital factory data architecture from the ground up, collaborate closely with operations and engineering, and make a measurable impact on operational performance.

What you will do

• Design and deploy ETL pipelines to integrate data from ERP, MES, SCADA, and test systems into a single, trusted environment
• Ensure data integrity, completeness, and latency compliance for production‑critical datasets
• Lead the development of Power BI dashboards for key manufacturing KPIs such as OEE, FPY, yield, bottlenecks, downtime, and scrap
• Apply machine learning and AI to predict equipment downtime, identify process drifts, and optimize throughput
• Architect robust integration between MES, SCADA, and ERP (SAP) systems while ensuring scalability and cybersecurity compliance
• Partner with Operations, Maintenance, and Quality teams to translate data insights into measurable improvements
• Mentor engineers and analysts on data automation and analytics best practices to foster a data‑driven culture
• Drive continuous improvement initiatives and directly impact plant performance and competitiveness

What we are looking for

• Degree in Data Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field
• Extensive experience in industrial data analytics, manufacturing systems integration, or digital factory engineering
• Hands‑on expertise in SQL, Python, ETL, API integration, and cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP)
• Advanced Power BI skills including DAX, M Query, automation, and governance
• Experience with MES, SCADA, ERP (SAP) systems and applying machine learning for predictive maintenance or quality optimisation
• Strong problem‑solving mindset, ownership of deliverables, and excellent communication with cross‑functional teams
