Data Engineer - Cloud
Job Description
A leading research?driven organisation is growing its cloud and data engineering capability and is hiring a Cloud & Data Platform Engineer to support the development, governance and optimisation of its modern Azure?based environment. This role is ideal for someone with early career experience in cloud/data engineering who is ready to take ownership of real platform responsibilities.
The Role
You will support the build and optimisation of a scalable data and ML platform, working across Azure, Snowflake and a range of modern engineering tools. The position blends technical platform work with governance responsibilities, ensuring Azure environments remain secure, compliant and cost?efficient.
This is not a senior architecture role — it is hands?on engineering and cloud administration, contributing directly to how the organisation uses its cloud services.
Key Responsibilities Cloud Engineering & Administration
- Act as a global administrator within Azure, supporting identity, governance and platform configuration
- Apply, maintain and improve Azure policies, including cost monitoring, optimisation and resource governance
- Support automation, monitoring and operational upkeep of cloud services
- Work with Snowflake as part of the core enterprise data platform
- Contribute to data pipeline creation, integrations and ongoing platform health
- Support ML/data workflows using tools such as Databricks, Azure ML, Synapse, MLflow, Airflow, or similar technologies
- Work closely with data engineers, ML practitioners and analysts
- Troubleshoot and resolve cloud platform issues
- Help shape best practices for cloud operations and cost?effective design
What We're Looking For
- Around 2–3 years’ experience in cloud engineering or data engineering
- Strong experience working with Azure (AWS familiarity fine, but Azure must be primary)
- Hands?on experience with Snowflake is a plus
- Familiarity with modern data/ML platforms (Databricks, Azure ML, Synapse, MLflow, Airflow, etc.)
- Experience applying Azure policies, managing cloud governance and monitoring cloud cost efficiency
- Experience acting as an Azure global administrator, overseeing core platform configuration
- Broad engineering mindset — someone who works on platforms, not analysing data
