About the position

As a Data Engineer, you’ll play a vital role in turning complex, messy datasets into reliable, actionable insights that drive smarter decisions for our customers. You’ll design and optimise scalable data pipelines, ensure data quality, and help evolve our platform to handle the growing demands of the global food supply chain. In this role, you won’t just build pipelines, you’ll help shape the future of our platform. From performance tuning and architecture improvements to enabling new customer capabilities, your impact will extend far beyond day-to-day operations. This is an evolving position with ample opportunity for growth. Whether your background is in startups or larger organisations, you’ll thrive here if you enjoy ownership, impact, and the chance to define your role as the business scales.

• Collect, transform, and normalise datasets to ensure quality and reliability.

• Contribute to the evolution of the business’ data platform by driving improvements in performance and architecture.

Qualifications

What would make you a great fit

• Collaboration: You believe the best results come from working together. You share ideas, pitch in, and elevate those around you.
• Grit: You’re curious, self-driven, and unafraid to roll up your sleeves. You get the job done even when the path isn’t clear and adapt quickly when things change.
• People: You stay close to those we serve. Listening, learning, and building what matters most.
• Feedback: You see it as fuel. You give it with care, take it with humility, and use it to level up.
• Ingenuity: You solve problems with creativity and speed. You look for ways to streamline, automate, or improve without being asked.
