Senior Data Engineer

  

A successful FTSE-listed organisation with a friendly, close-knit culture is looking for a Senior Data Engineer to help shape and deliver its evolving data platform.

  

This is a hands-on, high-impact role in a smaller organisation where you will act as both a senior engineer and strategic data partner, designing solutions that support both operational and long-term business goals.

  

You will play an important role in the company’s migration to Microsoft Fabric, while continuing to build and optimise its existing SQL Server-based data warehouse environment.

  

While primarily a backend engineering role, you will also support reporting via SSRS/Microsoft Power BI, with an increasing focus on AI-driven capabilities over time.

  

As the Senior Data Engineer, you will work closely with the Solutions Architect and collaborate with teams across the business, with occasional travel to France and Germany. This opportunity suits someone with in-depth SQL experience who is looking to work with modern tools like Microsoft Fabric.

  

Essential Skills

Strong SQL Server experience (T-SQL, SSIS, SSRS, stored procedures, functions, triggers)

Data warehouse architecture, build and maintenance

Excellent communication skills and ability to gather requirements from non-technical stakeholders at all levels

Degree in Computer Science or STEM subject

Comfortable working 4 days per week onsite in Vauxhall Desirable

Microsoft Fabric, Azure Synapse, Azure Data Factory, Snowflake, Databricks

Python or any other relevant language

Experience with tools such as Power BI, Qlik or Tableau   

The role offers a package of £64k+, plus a bonus of up to 15%, along with a generous pension, 28 days' holiday, private medical insurance, permanent health insurance, study support, and a modern office with an onsite gym.

  

If your experience aligns, apply with an up-to-date CV as soon as possible, as this is expected to be a popular opportunity

Where to Advertise Machine Learning Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising machine learning jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. The candidate pool is small, highly specialised and in demand across AI labs, financial services, healthcare, autonomous systems and consumer technology simultaneously. Machine learning engineers and researchers move between roles through professional networks, conference communities and specialist platforms — not general job boards where ML roles compete with unrelated software engineering positions for the same audience. This guide, published by MachineLearningJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise machine learning roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

New Machine Learning Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Driving ML Innovation

Machine learning (ML) has transitioned from a specialised field into a core business capability. In 2026, organisations across healthcare, finance, robotics, autonomous systems, natural language processing, and analytics are expanding their machine learning teams to build scalable intelligent products and services. For professionals exploring opportunities on www.MachineLearningJobs.co.uk , understanding the companies that are scaling, winning investment, or securing high‑impact contracts is crucial. This article highlights the new and high‑growth machine learning employers to watch in 2026, focusing on UK innovators, international firms with significant UK presence, and global platforms investing in machine learning talent locally.

How Many Machine Learning Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Machine Learning Job?

Machine learning is one of the most exciting and rapidly growing areas of tech. But for job seekers it can also feel like a maze of tools, frameworks and platforms. One job advert wants TensorFlow and Keras. Another mentions PyTorch, scikit-learn and Spark. A third lists Mlflow, Docker, Kubernetes and more. With so many names out there, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking you must learn everything just to be competitive. Here’s the honest truth most machine learning hiring managers won’t say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool. They hire you because you can solve real problems with the tools you know. Tools are important — no doubt — but context, judgement and outcomes matter far more. So how many machine learning tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the real number is far smaller than you think — and more logically grouped. This guide breaks down exactly what employers expect, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to structure your learning for real career results.
