- Develop automated data quality, validation, governance, and monitoring frameworks to ensure reliable and compliant customer data
- Enable CRM and marketing teams to access trusted, activation-ready audiences and customer data with minimal latency
- Work with customer consent, preferences, and PII across data flows, ensuring compliance with frameworks such as GDPR and CCPA/CPRA
- Troubleshoot pipeline and integration issues, improve reliability and performance, and optimise data consumption and infrastructure costs
- Collaborate with CRM, Martech, Product, Analytics, and Data teams within an Agile delivery environment
- Provide technical guidance through code reviews, mentoring, documentation, and data engineering best practices
- Support analytics and reporting use cases across Databricks and platforms such as ThoughtSpot
- 5+ years of experience in Data Engineering, with strong hands-on experience building production data pipelines
- Deep experience with Databricks, including Spark, PySpark, Structured Streaming, Delta Lake, and both batch and near real-time processing
- Strong Python, SQL, and data modelling skills, with experience designing scalable data architectures
- Proven experience integrating complex upstream or legacy data sources with downstream Martech, CDP, or customer engagement platforms
- Strong understanding of customer data concepts including identity resolution, unified customer profiles, deduplication, enrichment, customer events, and audience management
- Experience working with CDPs or customer engagement platforms, particularly mParticle and/or Braze, and understanding how customer data moves between these systems
- Strong understanding of data quality, governance, privacy, consent management, and handling customer PII
- Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or GCP, alongside Git and CI/CD practices
- Strong problem-solving and communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders
- Experience working in an agency, consultancy, or client-facing environment within Agile delivery teams
- English proficiency at C1 level
Desirable
- Databricks certification such as Data Engineer Associate or Professional
- Experience with streaming, CDC, or event-driven technologies and patterns
- Experience with Delta Sharing, reverse ETL, or warehouse-native activation
