Data & Analytics Engineer 12 Month FTC
Liberty Wines is modernising its data estate: migrating from on-prem Analysis Services to the cloud, moving our WMS, ERP and bespoke apps to scalable platforms, and expanding AI/ML initiatives.
We are evaluating both Fabric and Databricks as a potential strategic fit. As our hands-on Data & Analytics Engineer, youll play a key role in shaping and influencing that decision, helping assess the best platform for our needs based on your experience and contributing to successful delivery on either.
You will work end-to-end, from schema design to dashboard storytelling, and be the pivotal data voice in the Technology team. This role offers broad ownership across tooling, standards, engineering and enablement rather than being confined to a narrow BI silo.

Optimise datasets for performance, incremental refresh and DirectQuery.
AI / ML Enablement
Work with Libertys AI & Automation Dev Team to prepare and expose curated data to our AI/ML toolsets and workflows.
Stakeholder Enablement & Documentation
Maintain clear documentation for BI projects, processes, and solutions.
Enforce data governance practices to ensure compliance with organizational standards.
