  • Strong knowledge of data warehousing (e.g., Google BigQuery), data processing (Apache Spark, Beam), and pipeline orchestration (Airflow, Cloud Composer).
  • Proficiency with SQL and No-SQL databases (e.g., Cloud Datastore, MongoDB), and storage systems (e.g., Google Cloud Storage, S3).
  • Strong experience with Python or Java 8+, and object-oriented programming.
  • Familiarity with development tools such as GitHub, Jira, Docker, and Kubernetes.

What's on Offer:

  • Hybrid working options to support a balanced work-life environment.
  • A comprehensive benefits package, including health and wellness programmes, an electric car scheme, and childcare support.
