Junior Data Engineer
Remote (UK) | Occasional trips to Manchester | £40k
This is a proper junior Data Engineering role for someone who wants to learn how modern data platforms are actually built — not a reporting role dressed up with a better title.
You’ll be joining a senior data team in a B2B environment, working with real production data, proper pipelines, and experienced engineers who will teach you how to do things the right way.
What you’ll be working on
* Supporting and developing data pipelines using Azure (ADF, Databricks, SQL)
* Working alongside senior engineers on ELT patterns and data modelling
* Helping maintain Azure SQL datasets used across the business
* Supporting analytics teams by delivering clean, well-structured data (not just dashboards)
* Learning how data platforms are monitored, documented and improved over time
This role is about building foundations — technically and professionally.
What we’re looking for
* Solid SQL fundamentals
* Some Python (data manipulation, scripts)
* Exposure to Azure data tooling
* Curious, switched-on, and wants to get properly good at data engineering
Why this is a good role
* Mentorship from very senior data engineers
* Real responsibility, not shadowing forever
* Clear path into a mid-level Data Engineer role
* Modern Azure stack, owned in-house
If you’re a junior who wants to grow into a strong Data Engineer, this one’s worth a look
