Data Engineer

Senior GCP Data Engineer – Dataflow / Dataform / Apache Beam / Big Query

£500 per day | Outside IR35 | 2 months, likely extension | London twice per week

This isn’t a BAU Data Engineer role. You’ll join a major UK media organisation to assess, improve and potentially rearchitect an existing GCP integration connecting operational customer data with a leading CRM platform.

The service was originally built on Snowflake and AWS before being migrated to GCP with limited redesign. As the Data Engineer you will have the opportunity to shape the technical direction, deliver quick wins and implement improvements that reduce processing time, monthly costs and overall complexity.

The Data Engineer will need to do:

• Commercial experience with Dataflow, Dataform, Apache Beam & Big Query
• Experience assessing and improving existing brownfield data pipelines
• Evidence of performance optimisation, cost reduction or rearchitecture
• The ability to get up to speed quickly and work confidently with senior stakeholders

Experience with Braze , CRM , MarTech or customer data pipelines would put you straight to the top!

This is a brilliant short-term project where you can make a genuine, measurable impact, with a good chance of extension if the initial work identifies a larger opportunity.
