Do you want to work in a nurturing culture where you can flourish and be your best? Would you like to work on services that are used by key BBC products and millions of people each day? If so, this opportunity could be for you. THE ROLE The core of the role is building and maintaining core data pipelines for ingesting, processing and summarisation of data. Using automation as a default, and delivering high-quality code to define pipelines and transformations. As a data engineer, you will have the opportunity to assist with the data platform blueprint and design, evaluating workflows and tools for the platform, supported by senior engineers and engineering leaders. Maintaining security on the platform is very important to ensure that we protect the data we hold about our audience and ensure it is used in line with our data governance policies. This role gives you the opportunity to suggest solutions and infrastructure to be created with appropriate levels of security and encryption. Experience in data privacy engineering and techniques and anonymisation, data masking and obfuscation and others is highly desirable. The data platform is a brand-new capability built using modern tools and components. We want to keep developing the platform and ensure we are keeping the platform up-to-date, so awareness of emerging database technologies and their potential impact on our data platform as well as staying up-to-date with developments in the open source community around DevOps, data engineering, data science, and similar tooling are key responsibilities. WHAT DOES IT TAKE? You will be a passionate engineer with a background in either software or data engineering and be keen to enhance your skills in data services and systems. You will be a key member of our data platform engineering team, developing high-performing, scalable, high-impact data products and services. We are looking for a person who is motivated by delivering high-quality solutions, driven to develop in their careers, and is a strong communicator. You will be supported by your team and leaders to deliver value with an eye on quality, scale, and security. We don't expect you to have experience in all of these but below gives you examples of the technologies and practices we value: Technical Skills Knowledge of Big Data pipelines and processing technologies and experience in data processing and building data pipelines. Knowledge of database design, performance optimisation, and troubleshooting. Enthusiasm for writing clean, well-documented, and testable code and experience with software testing practices including unit testing frameworks where relevant. A security-first mindset - a good understanding of security and compliance principles as they relate to data infrastructures and the management of data. Goal-oriented - you'll enjoy finishing the job by developing the final details. Strong problem-solving skills and experience with troubleshooting and root cause analysis. A willingness to deliver user value early while balancing technical quality - having an iterative deliverable mindset. Communication Good communication skills - a great candidate will be able to communicate with other engineers and non-technical stakeholders, tailoring the message appropriately to the audience. The ability to question the way we work, and the tools and processes we use - we're always aiming to make our team the best it can be. Curiosity and an openness to change - we're always learning new technologies and requirements often change. If that energises you, you'll enjoy this challenge! Technologies Experience with SQL, DBT and familiarity with Data Warehousing technologies (ideally Snowflake). Experience using general-purpose programming languages (typically we use Python and NodeJS for application services, but you should feel empowered to flex to what suits the job most effectively). Experience of building components on the cloud (preferably AWS). Experience of containerisation techniques using tools like Docker/Kubernetes. We are infrastructure as code first in our approaches - so experience with infrastructure/configuration as code tools and techniques (such as Terraform and CloudFormation). Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines for code validation and deployment. Experience of data pipeline orchestration e.g. Airflow or Jenkins.
