Senior Consultant

A high energy and outcomes focused consulting firm is bolstering their data engineering capability with a hands-on technical senior to drive platform delivery on a significant government sector engagement. Youll spend your time between the keyboard and the whiteboard: designing production data pipelines mentoring 23 junior engineers and helping drive technical direction for client deliverables across the Azure Databricks and Snowflake stack.

Day to day youll be designing and owning production data pipelines and platform components across Azure Databricks and Snowflake doing hands-on engineering rather than just oversight while helping guide the technical direction for client engagements. That means making the calls on architecture modelling approach and tooling trade-offs and documenting them clearly enough that clients can run the platform without us. Youll apply and uphold our engineering standards around testing CI/CD security and maintainability and mentor a team of two or three engineers by reviewing their designs and code and lifting the bar for what we ship. Alongside the technical work youll scope engagements with clients manage delivery plans translate business problems into technical solutions and support business development through discovery estimation and proposals.

Youll likely have five to seven years of hands-on data engineering behind you with a track record of shipping production platforms rather than stalled migrations or prototypes. Were looking for deep expertise across Azure Databricks and Snowflake.

Just as important is the way you work. Youre someone who can guide delivery and people while staying hands-on communicate clearly with non-technical stakeholders and thrive in a consulting environment with shifting context multiple clients and direct client contact. Australian citizenship is preferred but no security clearance is required. Azure Data Engineer or Databricks certifications streaming and real-time data experience AI/ML enablement or a consulting background would all be welcome bonuses.

A hybrid setup with one or two days a week in the office or on client site and the rest from home paid professional certifications and a real opportunity to shape the engineering culture from within.
