ABOUT THE ROLE

The Senior Database & ETL Engineer is responsible for the operational management, performance, resilience, and security of the organisation’s database platforms, primarily Microsoft SQL Server & Teradata alongside the development and support of ETL/ELT and data integration solutions.

The role ensures high availability, disaster recovery, data integrity, and optimal performance of critical systems, including replication, failover, backup, and recovery processes, and takes ownership of database-related incident response and recovery where required.

Working across database administration and engineering, the role designs, develops, supports ETL/ELT solutions, using SSIS where appropriate alongside SQL/T-SQL and other integration technologies, ensuring reliable movement and transformation of data across operational, warehousing, analytics, and reporting platforms.

The role will also support the evolution and modernisation of the data platform. Teradata experience is highly desirable, with experience of other large-scale enterprise or MPP data platforms also beneficial. Exposure to Microsoft Fabric and the wider Azure data ecosystem would be advantageous as the organisation evolves its data platform.
