About us

We are a UK and India-based technology consultancy delivering IT strategy, architecture, and programme management for Tier 1 and Tier 2 enterprises across Spacetech, Telecommunications, Retail, Financial services and Utilities. Our clients include global satellite operators and major UK telecoms and retail brands, and our work is built on industry standards including TM Forum ODA, MEF, TOGAF, and ARTS. This role sits on our India delivery team, working directly with UK-based enterprise clients on live production systems.

Role summary

We're looking for a Data Engineer to build and operate the pipelines and data infrastructure that UK clients' analytics, reporting, and ML/AI teams depend on. This is a core infrastructure role — reliable, well-modelled, well-tested data — not a one-off reporting or dashboard-building role. Key responsibilities

- Design, build, and maintain batch and streaming data pipelines from source systems (databases, APIs, event streams) into client data platforms.
- Own data modelling and schema design in the client’s data warehouse or lakehouse (Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, or Redshift).
- Implement data quality checks and testing so downstream consumers can trust pipeline output without manual verification.
- Build and maintain orchestration for pipeline workflows (Airflow, dbt, Prefect, or equivalent).
- Work directly with data scientists and ML engineers to ensure clean, well-documented data reaches their pipelines on time.
- Manage schema evolution and versioning without breaking downstream consumers.
- Support data governance and lineage tracking so the client can answer "where did this number come from" with confidence.
- Optimise pipeline cost and performance, particularly for high-volume or high-frequency data sources. What we're looking forRequired




- 4-7 years in data engineering, with production ownership of pipelines feeding analytics or ML systems, not just one-off ETL scripts.
- Strong SQL and one of Python or Scala for pipeline development.
- Hands-on experience with a cloud data warehouse/lakehouse (Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, or Redshift).
- Experience with a pipeline orchestration tool (Airflow, dbt, Prefect, or equivalent).
- Working knowledge of streaming data technologies (Kafka, Kinesis, or equivalent) where relevant to the client’s architecture.
- Practical data modelling skills — dimensional modelling, slowly changing dimensions, and schema design trade-offs.
- Excellent written and spoken English — client-facing, no intermediary.
- Comfortable working a 1pm-10pm IST overlap window to align with UK client hours. Nice to have
- Spark or Databricks-specific experience at scale.
- dbt for transformation and testing, with a robust testing discipline.
- Experience with a data catalogue/governance tool (Collibra, Alation, or equivalent).
- Prior experience in telecoms, retail, or financial services data environments. What we offer
- Direct exposure to UK client production data platforms, working alongside analytics and ML teams rather than behind a ticket queue.
- A senior, embedded role within a small, high-trust delivery team, not a large offshore bench.
- Remote-first, India-based role with fixed UK-overlap hours.
- An above-industry-average package for working directly with top-tier UK clients. How to apply

Please send your CV, current CTC, notice period, and a short answer to the following screening question to [email protected]: Describe a data pipeline that broke or produced silently wrong data in production — how did you (or a monitoring/testing check you built) catch it, and what did you change afterward?
