We're looking for a Lead Data Engineer with deep, hands-on Databricks expertise to join a major enterprise data and AI transformation.
You'll lead the design and delivery of scalable data platforms and pipelines supporting GenAI and agentic AI initiatives.
Strong Databricks experience is essential. We're looking for someone who has delivered production-grade solutions in Databricks, not just exposure to the platform.
What You'll Do
Lead data engineering solutions using Databricks and the Lakehouse platform.
Build scalable pipelines using Spark, PySpark, Python and SQL.
Design Delta Lake / Lakehouse architectures across batch and streaming.
Build data foundations for GenAI, RAG and agentic AI.
Work with structured and unstructured data.
Contribute to Vector Search, embeddings and RAG capabilities.
Drive data quality, governance, security and observability.
Provide technical leadership and influence architecture and engineering standards.
What We're Looking For
Essential
Extensive commercial Data Engineering experience.
Deep hands-on Databricks experience.
Robust Spark / PySpark, Python and SQL.
Robust Delta Lake / Delta Tables experience.
Experience designing complex data pipelines and platforms.
Cloud experience, ideally Azure or AWS.
Strong technical leadership and architecture skills.
Desirable
GenAI / LLM experience.
RAG, Vector Search and embeddings.
Agentic AI experience.
LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex or MCP.
Unity Catalog, MLflow, Databricks Workflows or DLT/Lakeflow.
The Key Requirement
If you're a strong Data Engineer but only have limited Databricks exposure, this role is unlikely to be suitable. We're specifically looking for candidates who are genuinely robust in Databricks and can operate at Lead level.
