We’re currently partnering with a forward-thinking, technology-driven organisation that has recently secured significant investment and is now looking to expand its data capability with the addition of a talented Data Engineer / Data Scientist.

This is an excellent opportunity for either an experienced “mid-level" Data Engineer with a few years under their belt, looking to step up into a more hands-on, impactful role. With elements of Data Science in the role too, you may be a Data Scientist, looking for a more hands on Data wrangling / production coding environment opportunity, or vice-versa. You’ll be instrumental in shaping how the business uses data - moving from manual, ad-hoc processes to scalable, production-ready solutions.

The Role:

You’ll work at the heart of a growing data function, building robust pipelines and enabling advanced analytics within a modern Azure-based environment. This is a highly technical, hands-on role with real ownership and visibility across the business.

Benefits include:

  • 25 days’ annual leave, Birthday off, Life assurance, Health & Dental plans, pension scheme & more!

  • £55K Basic Salary + Bonus
Key responsibilities include:
  • Developing and maintaining scalable data pipelines using Python

  • Automating manual Excel/VBA workflows into reliable, production-grade systems

  • Working with large datasets using Spark and Azure (Databricks/Synapse)

  • Supporting data modelling and analytics use cases (Crossing over to more Data Science driven work)

  • Driving best practices including Git, CI/CD, and code reviews

  • Collaborating with stakeholders to deliver actionable data solutions
What they’re looking for:
  • Strong Python and SQL skills

  • Experience or exposure to Spark, big data tools, or cloud platforms (ideally Azure)
What’s on offer:
  • The chance to join a business at an exciting stage of growth following recent investment

  • A collaborative and supportive team environment

  • Clear opportunities for development and progression

  • Hybrid working - Our HQ is in the South West (Exeter area!) but we have a lot of flexibility to consider remote work. 1-2 days per month in the office maybe? We can talk about this.
If you’re looking to make a real impact in a growing organisation and build modern, scalable data solutions, we’d love to hear from you!
