We’re looking for a Senior Engineer (Data Engineer) to design and build the data backbone of our 4C engineering work on a large, multi‑year MoD programme — one of the most significant training transformation efforts in UK defence today. You’ll help shape how training, exercise and partner data flows through Exonaut®: from ingest, through modelling and storage, out to the reports and integrations our customers actually use.
Job Responsibility:
Design, build and operate batch and streaming data pipelines that move training and exercise data between Exonaut, MoD systems and partner platforms
Lead data modelling and warehouse / lakehouse design decisions
Work primarily across the Microsoft / Azure data stack
Introduce event‑driven and CDC patterns (Kafka, Event Hubs and similar) where they help us keep data flowing in near‑real‑time across systems
Help raise our engineering standards around code quality, testing, observability and operability
Mentor and coach engineers across the team
Partner with project managers and designers to make sure the data we build genuinely serves the people who use it
Requirements:
A capable data engineer who has independently led substantial pieces of pipeline, modelling or platform work from design through to production
Solid SQL and a working transformation language — Python is most common
Comfortable with version control, code review and writing tests for the data you produce
Comfortable across the Microsoft / Azure data stack (SQL Server, Data Factory, Synapse or Fabric, Power BI)
Sound judgement around data modelling and warehouse / lakehouse patterns
Pragmatic about quality: you instrument what you build and care about how it runs
A thoughtful collaborator who works well with engineers, project managers, designers and senior customer stakeholders
A mentor by instinct who lifts the people around you and helps spread good practice
UK security clearance: if you already hold UK SC, that’s a plus
A genuine interest in our mission — software that helps armed forces, public safety and resilience organisations train, prepare, and respond
