Key Responsibilities

The Cloud Data Engineers are people who eat, sleep and breathe data. They're responsible for implementing leading edge cloud-native data platforms which support and enable data-rich innovations. Part of a Cloud Data Engineer's responsibility is bringing people much closer to data, using public cloud services to help unlock what they can do with it and remove friction from how they consume it. This might be through automating complex data processing, designing novel integrations or working with cloud developers to create refined data products for various audiences.

Given this remit, you will be working with a wide range of technical stakeholders and subject matter experts, from data scientists, data analysts and cloud developers to more product oriented folk looking to align what you do with business processes, features and outcomes.

By no means an exhaustive list, you will ultimately be:

* Working with talented teams to build data security, management and engineering excellence into all of the solutions.
* Consulting with internal teams and client stakeholders on proposed solutions and how they'll be developed/deployed and used.
* Leveraging automation in every part of a solution to accelerate and optimise all out solutions.
* Sharing your cloud knowledge and ideas with the team and the customers.
