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.

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.
