Senior Data Engineer

Senior Data Engineer | Build From Zero | Sheffield (Hybrid) | £50–60k

Tired of maintaining legacy pipelines?

This is a true ground-zero data role. No inherited architecture. No politics. Just the chance to design, build, and own a company's entire data platform from scratch.

You'll partner directly with the Head of Data to create a single source of truth, automate manual workflows (image & video processing), and lay the foundations for future AI & ML use cases.

Why this is interesting

  • You're the foundational hire for data
  • Full ownership of the technical roadmap
  • Clear path to Team Lead as the function scales
  • Microsoft stack (Fabric / Power BI)
  • Real-world impact in AV & digital streaming

What we're looking for

  • Senior Data Engineer with a builder mindset
  • Strong SQL & Python
  • Experience building or re-platforming data systems
  • Comfortable with ambiguity and stakeholder-facing work

Hybrid role (2 days/week in Sheffield).

If you like starting with a blank canvas — this one's for you.
