Senior Data Engineer - NEC Housing System
- Senior Data Engineer
- Portsmouth - Onsite 1 day a week
- 6 month contract - 2 year programme
- Inside of IR35
- £600 per day
My client is embarking on a major transformation of its Housing Management services - replacing several ageing, disparate systems with a single, modern, cloud-hosted Housing Management System (HMS). This high-impact, strategically backed programme will improve services for more than 15,000 households and establish a strong digital foundation for future change.
We are seeking an experienced Data Lead to own and deliver the entire data migration workstream - a pivotal role in ensuring a smooth transition from the existing NEC Housing system into the new integrated platform. This is a hands-on role suited to someone who has "been through the trenches" of large-scale data migrations in housing or local authority environments.
As the Data Lead, you will:
- Lead migration from NEC Housing to the new HMS
- Own the ETL lifecycle - export, transform, cleanse, deduplicate, validate, and load.
- Analyse existing data structures, working with housing teams to interpret free-text or non-standard data and determine what should move into the target system.
Key Skills and Experience
- Strong experience as a hands on Senior Data Engineer
- Experience working with local authority or housing associations, including regulatory requirements, compliance and consumer standards.
- Proven track record migrating data from systems such as NEC Housing or other major HMS platforms.
- Expertise in ETL processes, data modelling, cleansing, SQL-based transformation and multi-stage reconciliation cycles.
- Understanding of cloud-hosted SaaS architectures, APIs and secure integration patterns.
