We work alongside organisations such as PayPal, adidas, NatWest, FanDuel and Money Saving Expert, building digital products and services that make a difference while always putting people first.\nWe’re a team of creators. We write code, shape delivery, build go-to-market strategies, develop AI solutions and create the practices that support our people. We work side by side with our clients, challenging what’s not working and helping them to build the future. Our commitment to craft, quality, and culture has helped us scale to over 600 people in just a few years.\nCreateFuture is a Great Place to Work-Certified™ company and has won Best Workplaces UK multiple years in a row.\nJoin us on our journey. Let’s create tomorrow, together, today.\nAbout the role and team:\nWe are looking for a Senior Data Engineer to join our data team, taking ownership of the design, delivery, and reliability of production data pipelines built on platforms like Snowflake / Databricks, Python, and PySpark. You'll work with a high degree of autonomy, taking on the more complex and ambiguous data engineering challenges across client engagements, while mentoring junior engineers and helping to raise the bar on engineering practice. You'll collaborate closely with architects, product teams, and client stakeholders to translate data requirements into robust, maintainable solutions.\nWhat you’ll be doing:\nTake ownership of designing, building, and maintaining scalable, production-ready data pipelines using AWS data services (e.g., AWS Glue, EMR, S3, Redshift, Athena), Python, and PySpark, with minimal supervision\nMake sound technical decisions on pipeline architecture, data modelling, and tooling, weighing up trade-offs in performance, cost, and maintainability\nMentor and support junior and mid-level data engineers, reviewing code and sharing knowledge to raise the standard of delivery across the team\nOwn and continuously improve CI/CD pipelines for data engineering workflows, ensuring reliable, repeatable deployments\nTroubleshoot and resolve complex issues in live data pipelines, acting as a point of escalation for the wider team\nPartner with cross-functional teams and client stakeholders to understand data requirements and shape them into technical solution\nWe’d love to talk to you if you: \nHave designed and operated production data pipelines on a modern cloud data platform, AWS (Glue, EMR, Redshift, S3/Lake Formation), Databricks, Snowflake or comparable, and can talk about which of those decisions would travel to a different one, and which wouldn't. \nHave owned orchestration in production, dependency design, retries, SLAs, and the observability that tells you a pipeline failed before the client does.\nHave landed data from awkward sources: APIs, CDC off operational databases, files that change shape without telling you.\nHave deep SQL skills and hands-on experience with data modelling (e.g., Kimball, medallion/lakehouse patterns, or domain-driven modelling) - this is the load-bearing, provider-agnostic skill underneath almost all of our pipeline work\nHave strong Python and PySpark for batch processing, with production-grade, well-tested code. The bulk of this work is batch and ELT, but you'll need to have experienced event-driven or micro-batch pipelines and know where the design assumptions stop holding. )\nHave experience owning the delivery of data engineering work with limited oversight, including CI/CD management and support\nHave experience mentoring or supporting the development of less experienced engineers\nAre comfortable working directly with stakeholders to shape technical solutions from ambiguous requirements, presenting your work, estimation and discussing tradeoffs and risks\nWhat we’ll offer you:\nWe trust people to do their best work. That means flexibility over rigid rules, impact over activity, and real investment in your growth both professionally and personally. You’ll be part of a supportive, and friendly culture, surrounded by smart, curious people who care deeply about what they do.\nWe offer flexible working, including hybrid and remote options. Our office hubs are located in Edinburgh, Leeds, Manchester, London and Bulgaria, with occasional travel to client sites or CreateFuture offices when needed.\nWe trust you to manage your time balancing collaboration with client time and focused work. What matters is the impact you have, not how busy you look.\nOur hiring process\nWe try to keep our hiring process clear, fair and respectful of your time. We aim to get back to everyone who applies and we will be upfront about where you are in the process.\nIt usually looks like this:\nCall with our Talent Acquisition Team \nRole specific capability interview \nDepending on the role, we might also ask you to do a short presentation, a practical or technical task or have a values focused conversation. We will explain what is involved before anything happens.\nInclusion at CreateFuture \nWe believe diverse teams build better workplaces and better products. We want CreateFuture to be a place where people feel able to be themselves and do their best work.\nIf you need any adjustments or support during the application process, just. We will do what we can to help.\nWe look forward to your application!","description_format":"text","description_chars":5394,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Flexible schedule"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["IT Consulting & Digital Transformation","Custom Software Development","AI Consulting & Integration"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-08-14T11:55:41Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":29,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.793,"p_room":0.36,"age_days":63,"expected_fill_days":40,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-17T05:46:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/createfuture-senior-data-engineer-microsoft-fabric","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/createfuture-senior-data-engineer-microsoft-fabric.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-17T07:07:28Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":9717,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-18T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":52267},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=52267"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fcreatefuture-senior-data-engineer-microsoft-fabric"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fcreatefuture-senior-data-engineer-microsoft-fabric"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fcreatefuture-senior-data-engineer-microsoft-fabric"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/createfuture-senior-data-engineer-microsoft-fabric\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fcreatefuture-senior-data-engineer-microsoft-fabric"}]}
