Hey! We're Huel, and we're pleased to meet you
Our culture thrives on high performance, and we set the bar high for new Hueligans who join us.
We invite you to read the advert below for our new Lead Data Engineer position to understand the role, and explore our 7 Huel values before applying to ensure we have the right working environment for you!
At Huel, we take nutrition seriously and ourselves a lot less so. The same goes for our data. We've built a modern stack that lets the whole business answer its own questions, fast, and we're looking for a Lead Data Engineer to own it and lead the team behind it.
You'll set the technical direction across Fivetran, Snowflake, dbt, and AWS, and you'll stay close enough to the code to keep your hands in it. You'll lead a small, sharp data engineering team, raise the bar on how we build, and make data-driven decisions the default across Huel.
This isn't a role for someone who wants to step away from the work. It's for someone who wants to do great work, and bring a team along with them.
Here's a quick overview of what to expect in the role:
Lead and grow the data engineering team: mentoring, code review, and setting the bar for what good looks like.
Own the direction of our data stack, and the roadmap that takes it forward.
Stay hands-on across dbt models, pipelines, and custom integrations.
Work with teams across the business to turn messy questions into answers people can trust.
Champion data governance, quality, and observability, so nobody has to check the numbers twice.

You've done serious data engineering, and you've led others doing it, whether that's a team or a project. You know SQL and dbt inside out, you're comfortable in Snowflake, and you'll happily reach for Python when an integration needs it.
You set high standards (CI/CD, testing, code review) and hold them without being precious about it. And you can walk someone who's never opened a terminal through a technical trade-off without making them feel out of their depth.
Mostly, you care. About the craft, about the team, and about getting data into the hands of the people who need it.
And as always, we’re on the lookout for new Hueligans who love a fast-paced environment and are always striving to be their best. We want people who aren’t afraid to think differently and push boundaries. If you’re all about setting big goals and believe that amazing things happen through creativity and teamwork, you’ll fit right in at Huel!
We know that at times, our teams face demanding pressures, and exceptional effort deserves meaningful rewards. That's why we've created a world-class perks and benefits program designed to support our Hueligans in achieving their best, both professionally and personally, while celebrating the global impact they're making!

Biannual events to celebrate success - Have you heard about Huelchella?
We know diversity isn’t just important... it’s essential. It makes us stronger, sharper, and better at what we do. At Huel, we’re about people, not just sustainable nutrition - real people with different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives.
We celebrate what makes each of us unique and we actively bring together Hueligans from all walks of life. Because whilst we share the same 7 values, it’s our differences that power our thinking, challenge our ideas, and help us build better products for a global community.
Belonging matters here. So does fairness. We want every Hueligan to have the opportunity to thrive, contribute, and be heard - no matter where they come from or what path they’ve taken to get here.
We don’t just welcome diversity of thought…we go looking for it!
Meet our teams here.
