3-month contract

We’re seeking a hands-on Contract Data Engineer to support and maintain Matillion–Snowflake data pipelines, ensuring business-critical data continues to flow reliably during a wider platform upgrade.

What you’ll be doing:

• Building, maintaining, and enhancing Matillion ETL/ELT pipelines
• Developing and optimising Snowflake tables, views, and transformations
• Tuning performance and warehouse usage for efficiency and cost control
• Owning day-to-day pipeline reliability, fixes, and small enhancements
• Monitoring data quality and resolving pipeline failures
• Collaborating closely with the existing Data Engineering team
• Keeping documentation up to date and ensuring a clean handover

What we’re looking for:

• Strong hands-on experience with Matillion and Snowflake
• Solid data modelling and performance optimisation skills
• Comfortable owning BAU workloads and operational support
• Able to work independently while fitting into established standards

If you’re a pragmatic Data Engineer who enjoys hands-on delivery and keeping data platforms running smoothly, we’d love to hear from you.
