Lead Data Engineer
We’re Quickline, and we believe everyone deserves great internet. Whoever you are, wherever you are and whatever you do online. So we’re on a mission to provide just that. Lightning fast, reliable broadband that reaches the places other providers leave behind.
Our mission relies on a team full of inspiring people, and we’re looking for a Lead Data Engineer to build and strengthen the foundations of our data platform, delivering reliable pipelines, governed, high-quality data products that teams across Sales, Network, Customer Experience, Finance and Operations can trust.
If building robust, production-grade data systems motivates you, and seeing trusted data improve how a business performs gives you a sense of achievement, we’d be very interested in learning more about your experience and expertise.
Here’s why you’ll love this role…
- Build and own core data engineering foundations in a business where data is becoming central to operational performance and decision making.
- Design and deliver reliable ingestion and transformation pipelines that reduce failures and “multiple versions of the truth”.
- Create trusted, well modelled datasets that underpin executive KPIs and operational dashboards across the organisation.
- Improve platform maturity: environments, testing, monitoring, documentation, and release practices that make delivery safer and faster.
- Work closely with IT, Systems Development and business teams to align system changes with data flows and change control.
- Be part of a data function that’s building towards a modern, governed single source of truth with clear ownership and quality expectations.
Here’s why you’ll be great in this role…
- Extensive hands-on data engineering experience within complex, high-growth or technology-led organisations, including building data platforms from inception to production.
- Proven track record of transforming fragile or fragmented pipelines into trusted, governed, production-grade data platforms through practical engineering improvements.
- Strong expertise across the full data engineering lifecycle: data ingestion, transformation and modelling, and enabling consumption through BI layers and semantic models.
- Deep hands-on experience with modern cloud data platforms, including best practices for testing, monitoring, environments, deployment, and data quality management across pipelines and upstream systems.
- Experienced leader and communicator, capable of building and developing high-performing data engineering teams while clearly explaining trade-offs and delivery decisions to non-technical stakeholders.
The benefits…
- Pension – 5% employer / 5% employee contribution.
- Health Cashback Scheme – Can claim back prescription, GP and optician charges, therapy allowance, private outpatient consultations, EAP, 24/7 remote GP service, member discounts.
- 25 days annual leave + bank holidays, your birthday, house move and wedding day off.
