The project
One of our major customers is part-way through a multi-phase migration from a legacy on-premises data warehouse to a modern Azure data platform. Earlier phases established the platform, patterns and toolset. This phase strengthens the foundations: a new cloud analytics environment, deployment governance and CI/CD uplift, pipeline optimisation, environment replication and role-based access control, alongside a defined set of ingestion, archival and warehouse migration workloads. Delivery runs in two-week sprints with a team of two engineers and a shared project manager.
The role
Brennan is seeking a Senior Platform Engineer to lead the technical delivery of this phase. The role owns the platform design, provides direction to a Platform Engineer, and represents Brennan technically in front of the customer's architects. Approximately half of the engagement is platform work - deployment governance, CI/CD, setting provisioning and access control - with the balance in data engineering delivered on top of that platform. Depth in both disciplines is required,



and the role is hands‐on as well as design-led.
