Designing and building scalable ELT pipelines and data models to support applications, dashboards, and analytics products
Writing and optimising SQL and Python to process large, complex datasets
Building and maintaining dbt models, tests, and documentation
Monitoring pipeline health, data quality, and performance metrics
Leading technical architecture discussions and making design decisions that support future scale
Collaborating closely with analytics, data engineering, sales operations, and market intelligence teams
Mentoring team members on analytics engineering best practices
Ensuring high standards around testing, version control, CI/CD, and documentation
What you’ll need

Strong SQL skills for large-scale data transformations
Strong Python skills for data pipeline development
Hands-on experience with dbt / dbt Cloud
Experience working in GCP, particularly BigQuery
Infrastructure-as-code experience (e.g. Terraform)
Strong experience with Git and modern version control workflows
Solid understanding of data modelling (dimensional models, star schemas)
Experience implementing data quality and testing frameworks
What will help you succeed

Strong architectural thinking and ability to design for scale
Proactive approach to identifying data quality and performance issues
Ability to communicate clearly with non-technical stakeholders
Experience mentoring or guiding other engineers
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines for data transformations
Knowledge of enterprise data warehouse design principles
Exposure to geospatial analytics (e.g. BigQuery GIS)
Experience working with data visualisation tools such as Tableau
Interest in advanced analytics, predictive modelling, or AI-driven insights
Understanding of data governance, lineage, and metadata management
Experience with modern data stack tools (e.g. Airbyte, Fivetran)
A continuous-learning mindset in a fast-evolving data environment
Why join?

Work on data products with direct, measurable commercial impact
High ownership and influence in a small, collaborative team
Mix of hands-on technical work and strategic architecture decisions
Hybrid working with regular in-person collaboration in London
Opportunity to shape how data is used across a growing, global organisation

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Cloud Computing Job Applications (UK Guide)

anding a job in cloud computing can be highly competitive — especially in the UK market where demand far outpaces supply in many segments.

The Skills Gap in Cloud Computing Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Cloud computing underpins almost every modern digital service. From financial systems and healthcare platforms to AI, e-commerce, government infrastructure and cybersecurity, the cloud is now the default operating environment for UK organisations. Demand for cloud professionals has grown rapidly, with roles spanning architecture, engineering, security, DevOps, platform operations and cost optimisation. Salaries remain high, and vacancies remain stubbornly difficult to fill. Yet despite a growing number of graduates with computer science, IT and software engineering degrees, employers across the UK report a persistent problem: Too many candidates are not job-ready for real cloud computing roles. This is not a question of intelligence or motivation. It is a structural skills gap between what universities teach and what cloud jobs actually require. This article explores that gap in depth: what universities do well, what they consistently miss, why the gap exists, what employers genuinely want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build sustainable careers in cloud computing.
