Transform lives through data and AI

Who we are:

We deliver advanced data and AI solutions that cut costs, reduce risk and uncover new revenue opportunities. Since 2016, we've trained over 3,000 data and AI specialists by removing barriers to tech careers. Clients benefit from expert teams, workforce upskilling, and partnerships with leading technology providers like Databricks, Snowflake and Collibra.

The Role: We're hiring for a new team of Snowflake Data Engineers to lead the design, development and deployment of cloud data platforms and analytics solutions using Snowflake. This combines hands-on engineering, solution architecture and technical leadership. You will translate business requirements into scalable Snowflake solutions, guide project teams on best practices for data modelling and ELT design, and ensure that outcomes deliver measurable value for our clients.

Key Responsibilities

• Translate complex business and data requirements into robust Snowflake designs, including data ingestion, transformation, and consumption layers
• Design and implement secure, performant Snowflake environments including RBAC, data masking, and policies/entitlement understanding
• Build and optimise ELT pipelines (using tools such as dbt, Airflow, Fivetran, or native Snowflake tasks) to support batch and real-time use cases
• Collaborate with Kubrick and client stakeholders to inform delivery planning, data strategy, and architecture decisions
• Promote engineering excellence through code reviews, reusable patterns, and contribution to Kubrick's internal knowledge base
• Line-manage and mentor developers within the team, supporting their professional growth and certifications (including SnowPro)
• Troubleshoot and tune query performance, storage usage, and cost efficiency across Snowflake accounts
• Act as a subject matter expert during consulting engagements, providing advice on best practices for data sharing, and integration with other technology (e.g. Databricks, Starburst, Tableau, Power BI)
• Ensure solutions meet both functional and non-functional requirements such as scalability, security, reliability and cost optimisation

Key Requirements & Technical Experience

• At least 3 years of experience in data engineering or analytics, including designing and delivering enterprise grade data solutions
• Strong hands-on experience with Snowflake (or comparable cloud data warehouses like BigQuery, RedShift, Synapse) including data modelling, performance tuning and cost management
• Familiarity with SQL best practices, ELT patterns, and modern data transformation frameworks such as dbt
• Competence in at least one programming language (Python preferred) for automation.
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP), including security, IAM, and storage services
• Experience deploying and maintaining production pipelines using tools such as Airflow or Dagster
• Understanding of CI/CD principles, version control (Git) and software development lifecycle.
• Strong communication and stakeholder-management skills with the ability to influence technical and business decision makers
• Experience in delivery leadership and mentoring junior engineers
• Proven ability to troubleshoot complex data issues, optimise pipelines and ensure data quality and governance are maintained
