Job Description:

What you’ll do:

Slalom Build’s Data Engineering capability is comprised of passionate, flexible technologists who love to practice and hone their craft. As tools evolve and technologies emerge, we work to stay in front of innovations in data platform development and delivery.

You will work in small, collaborative teams with minimal oversight and direction to design and deliver innovative solutions on Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform using core cloud data warehouse tools, distributed processing engines, event streaming platforms, and other modern data technologies. In addition to building the next generation of data platforms, you will be working with some of the most forward-thinking organisations in data and analytics.

You will typically be responsible for understanding the client’s current environment and technical challenges as well as their plans for evolving or creating their future state architecture. Using that knowledge, your personal experiences, architecture expertise, and your ability to facilitate working design sessions with Slalom and client technical teams, you will lead the analysis, architecture, design, and development of your client’s next-generation Data Platform Solution.

You are experienced at breaking down complex development tasks and will be responsible for the timely quality completion of development items, ensuring that they support the Technical Solution you designed.
