Data Engineer (12 month FTC)

This is an important role to enable the execution of our already defined AI Strategy. As a Data Engineer in the Data and Analytics Centre of Excellence (CoE), reporting to the Head of Data Engineering, you will build pipelines and processes to transform data from foundational data products to derived data products on a modern data and AI platform. The objective of these data products is to create highly reusable and ready-to-consume datasets that ensure a single source of truth and enable flexible and rapid use of data and AI/ML customer centric use cases.

You will partner closely with Technology teams, especially Cloud Engineering, Software Engineering, and Architecture teams, as well as the Networks and Tech Ops teams across the Technology function (OneTech). You will also partner with other peers in the CoE - especially Data Governance, Data Science, Analytics Products, Business Partnering - to develop scalable solutions, including continuous monitoring and optimisation of data platforms and pipelines.
