• Monitor, troubleshoot, and optimise data platform performance
• Support Data Mesh principles and domain-led data ownership
• Work closely with stakeholders across finance, underwriting, claims, analytics, and technology teams
• Contribute to Agile delivery, CI/CD, and DevOps best practices

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years' experience in Data Engineering
• At least 2 years' experience within insurance, broking, MGA, carrier, or Lloyd's markets
• Strong experience with Microsoft Fabric or Azure Synapse
• Experience with Azure Data Factory, Azure Functions, and Azure Service Bus
• Advanced SQL skills with experience developing and optimising complex queries
• Python and/or PySpark experience
• Experience designing APIs and integration solutions
• Strong understanding of data modelling and data warehousing concepts
• Experience working within Agile delivery environments
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to engage technical and non-technical stakeholders alike

Why Join?

• Join an award-winning insurance group investing heavily in data and technology
• Work alongside a growing team where data is a strategic priority
• Exposure to modern cloud technologies and enterprise-scale data challenges
• Strong career development opportunities within a highly respected organisation
• Hybrid working in a prime Central London location
