Description

Senior Engineer - Full-Stack / Data This is a senior-level engineering role focused on supporting the team's transition from Power BI to Databricks and building out a broader data and application capability. The role combines full-stack development, data visualisation and API development, with experience across Databricks, Python, web development and APIs being particularly relevant. You'll be involved in designing and developing the technical infrastructure and API layers that sit behind applications, as well as proof-of-concept and early-stage solutions. A key part of the role will be technical leadership without direct people management - mentoring and upskilling a relatively junior team, helping establish best practices around governance and compliance, and working closely with stakeholders to shape the team's future direction. The first six months are expected to be particularly design and stakeholder-focused, helping define the vision, infrastructure and capabilities of the function and demonstrating how it can support the wider business. They're looking for someone who has already operated at this level, ideally with experience in a global banking environment, strong technical breadth, and the ability to communicate effectively with both technical teams and business stakeholders. Cultural fit is also important, with the team described as highly social and collaborative. Key skills: Full-stack development, Databricks, Python, APIs, web development, data visualisation, governance/compliance, technical mentoring and stakeholder engagement.
