Develop and maintain ELT pipelines using dbt and modern software engineering practices.
Ensure strong governance, lineage, data quality and security standards across all data assets.
Work closely with business, analytics and AI teams to identify opportunities where data products can accelerate decision making and productivity.
Help drive adoption of AI-assisted engineering practices using tools such as GitHub Copilot and Claude Code.

AI & Data Product Focus

This includes:

Designing datasets that can be easily discovered, understood and consumed by AI tools and large language models.
Creating high-quality, well-governed data foundations for machine learning, generative AI and agentic workflows.
Leveraging AI-assisted development tools to improve engineering productivity, code quality and delivery speed.
Supporting the development of AI-powered analytics, copilots and decision-support capabilities across the business.
Ensuring AI use cases are built on trusted, auditable and secure data.

Key Skills & Experience

Strong Snowflake, dbt, SQL and Azure experience.
Experience building enterprise-scale data platforms and data products.
Advanced dimensional modelling and Star Schema design.
Strong understanding of data governance, quality, metadata and lineage.
Hands-on experience with GitHub, CI/CD and modern engineering practices.
Financial Services, Wealth Management or Asset Management experience.
Experience delivering portfolio suitability, investment risk or regulatory reporting solutions.
Strong knowledge of portfolio, holdings, transactions and market data.
Experience working with Bloomberg, FTSE or similar market data providers.
Python experience desirable.
Comfortable using AI-assisted engineering tools such as GitHub Copilot and Claude Code.

Ideal Candidate

An experienced Data Engineer with deep Snowflake expertise and a strong Financial Services background who is excited about the next generation of AI-enabled data platforms. You'll understand how to build robust, governed data products that support traditional reporting and analytics today while laying the foundations for copilots, AI assistants and agentic AI capabilities in the future.
