Data Engineer - Stevenage- Hybrid- Up to £70K

We are looking for an experienced Data Engineer to join a high-profile programme delivering one of the largest data migration projects of its kind in the UK. This is a unique opportunity to work on a nationally significant initiative that will transform how data is managed and accessed across the several organisations.

The successful candidate must be eligible for security clearance due to the sensitive nature of the project.

In this role, you will analyse existing data structures and design robust migration strategies to move complex datasets to cloud environments. You will develop scripts and automated processes for data extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL), ensuring data quality and integrity throughout the migration process. Working closely with business users and IT teams, you will plan, coordinate, and execute migrations within strict timelines, troubleshoot issues promptly, and align processes with organisational goals and regulatory standards.

You will bring expert-level SQL skills for complex query development, performance tuning, and indexing strategies, enabling accurate and efficient migration from on-premises databases such as SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, and NoSQL to AWS cloud. Strong knowledge of ETL processes is essential, including experience with tools such as Talend, Informatica, Matillion, Pentaho, MuleSoft, Boomi, or scripting languages like Python, PySpark, and SQL. A solid understanding of data warehousing and modelling techniques, including Star and Snowflake schemas, is required. Ideally you will also have a comprehensive knowledge of AWS glue.

To succeed, you will demonstrate proven experience in data engineering, data migration, and ETL development, as well as strong analytical skills to assess data quality, resolve inconsistencies, and manage end-to-end migration projects. Your ability to collaborate with technical and non-technical stakeholders, ensure compliance, and deliver projects on time will be key to your success.

In return receive £70,000 depending on experience as well as an excellent benefits package and 3 days working from their modern office based in Stevenage.

If you are passionate about data, thrive in complex migration environments, and want to contribute to one of the most significant projects in the country, we would love to hear from you. Apply now by sending your CV to

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.
