Responsibilities

Assume ownership of a Snowflake-centric Data Lakehouse integrating structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data.
Develop and support robust ETL/ELT pipelines that ingest and transform data from multiple internal systems (trading, CRM, finance, risk, etc.) and external APIs.
Implement data models, schemas, and transformation frameworks optimised for analytical and regulatory use cases.
Apply best practices in data versioning, orchestration, and automation using modern data engineering tools.
Ensure scalability, data lineage, and governance across the data lifecycle.
Build and own semantic models on top of Snowflake (DirectQuery and Import), using DAX, calculation groups, RLS/OLS, and incremental refresh.
Develop operational reports, dashboards and data extracts.
Maintain high data integrity, privacy, and security aligned with FCA and GDPR requirements.
Monitor and optimise query performance and storage efficiency.
Partner with business units (Trading, Finance, Marketing, Compliance, Operations) to capture data requirements and translate them into robust technical solutions.
Support regulatory, management, and operational reporting requirements through structured data models.

Requirements

Experience in financial services, trading, or fintech environments.
Proven experience designing and delivering DWH / Delta Lakehouse using Snowflake.
Expert level SQL and data modelling expertise (star/snowflake schemas, dimension/al modelling).
2+ years writing dbt models in production. Comfortable with sources, snapshots, tests, macros, exposures, and the medallion (bronze/silver/gold) pattern.
3+ years building production Power BI on enterprise warehouses. Expert DAX (time intelligence, variables, virtual relationships, calculation groups), Power Query / M, Tabular Editor, DAX Studio.
Strong SQL on Snowflake. Understand warehouse sizing, clustering, query profiles, and the cost levers that matter.
Familiarity with orchestration and transformation frameworks.
Hands-on experience with data analysis, visualisation, and operational reporting tools.
Excellent communication skills and ability to translate business requirements into scalable data architecture.
Ability to create scripts in Python or another scripting language.
Experience with AWS (ECS, S3, IAM), Terraform, Git/GitHub Actions.
