Azure Data Engineer

We are strengthening our capability to bring data science solutions into production faster and with higher quality. This role bridges the gap between data science and data/platform engineering by taking prototypes and turning them into scalable, governed solutions.

Responsibilities

-Take data science prototypes (Python / notebooks) and productionise them on Databricks

-Design and implement robust data and ML pipelines

-Package and deploy models into production-grade workflows

-Apply MLOps practices (versioning, monitoring, deployment)

-Ensure solutions are scalable, reliable, and maintainable

-Co-manage Databricks environments, jobs, and workflows

-Apply data governance, security, and access controls aligned with standards

-Collaborate closely with data scientists to prepare models for production use

-Reduce dependency on heavy handovers by owning implementation within the team
