This technical hands-on role, of Senior Data Engineer, will contribute to our delivery of projects, BAU, and helping Ecotricity become more efficient by leveraging our data.


In addition to the technologies above, we also use Python, APIs, and various ETL solutions interfacing with a small number of legacy systems.


Responsibilities


  • Take ownership for designing, building and maintaining data solutions.
  • Build strong relationships with key stakeholders outside the department.
  • Be responsible for data quality and ensuring problems are resolved swiftly.
  • Identify and seek out technical debt, aiming to reduce this at each opportunity.

We’re proud to be an ethical company, and this naturally attracts ethical people, making for a good safe working environment and a team that works and wins together. We also have a competitive benefits package and chose to invest in our people whenever we can.



About You


Are you a seasoned Data Engineer looking to step up into a more senior role where your technical expertise and passion for data can make a significant impact? We are seeking a driven and experienced professional to take ownership of delivering cutting-edge data engineering solutions.

In this role, you will be at the forefront of designing, implementing, and optimizing data solutions across various formats, with a strong emphasis on data modelling and ETL processes. Your engineering skills will be key, allowing you to tackle complex challenges and deliver innovative solutions that drive our business forward.


While experience in the Energy industry is a plus, it’s your technical prowess and ability to create robust data solutions that will set you apart. This is your chance to take full ownership of technical solutions, shaping the future of our data infrastructure.

You will collaborate closely with project managers, product owners, and stakeholders, effectively communicating progress, presenting solutions, and delivering demos. Your ability to adapt your communication style to different audiences will be crucial in ensuring everyone is aligned and informed.


As this role offers the flexibility to work remotely, you will need to be self-motivated, delivery-focused, and capable of driving projects independently. We are committed to supporting your growth, but you should also be someone who constantly seeks out opportunities for improvement, striving for best practices and technical excellence.

If you are ready to lead and make a tangible difference in a dynamic environment, we encourage you to apply and take your career to the next level.

Ecotricity is Britain's greenest energy company. When we started back in 1995, we were the first company in the world to provide a new kind of electricity- the green kind.

Our mission was, and remains, to change the way energy is made and used in Britain- by replacing fossil fuels with clean, renewable energy.


We don't just supply green energy, we use the money from our customers' bills to make it ourselves too- we build windmills and sun parks in Britain. We call this 'bills in to mills'. In 2021, we started work on building two new solar parks, and now, in 2023, we're bringing geothermal energy to our customers' fuel mix, a first in the UK. We're also developing green gas mills which will generate 100% green gas from a source that we will never run out of- grass.


We don't just focus on energy though- we built Electric Highways, Britain's leading network of electric vehicle charging points, we helped Forest Green Rovers become the greenest football club in the world, and, in partnership with RSPB, we launched Britain's greenest mobile phone service, Ecotalk.


Ecotricity is an equal opportunities employer and is committed to providing equality for all.
