You’re looking to build something that matters — not just find another job.

This is your chance to join a nationally scaled business during a full data platform rebuild—not just a cloud migration. With two roles available, this is a rare opportunity to embed yourself at the heart of a transformation that’s already underway and backed by serious leadership.

I’m working directly with the Head of Data Engineering and the Head of Data Platforms & Architecture to bring on two strong Data Engineers who want to help build and shape the foundations— not just inherit the tech debt.

The Opportunity

We’re rebuilding a national data platform—shifting from siloed and scattered to streamlined, stable, and smart. It’s not greenfield. It’s better.

This is real-world complexity, supported by engineering, architecture, analytics and governance leads who want you to think boldly and build systems that last.

This platform supports decision-making across hundreds of retail sites and high-volume transactions nationwide.

You’ll be:

Designing and optimising pipelines using Python, Spark, SQL, and Databricks

Working across a hybrid environment (on-prem + Azure) that’s being rebuilt from the ground up

Shaping frameworks for versioning, orchestration, and automation — think CI/CD, not copy/paste

Collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver impact across buying, ops, and enterprise decisions

Embedding yourself in a team that values trust, momentum, and practical engineering

This Is For You If You…

Are tired of roles where “engineering” means fixing broken dashboards

Want to help architect scalable systems, not just inherit spaghetti

Understand the power of CI/CD, version control, and reproducibility—even if the environment isn’t perfect yet

Communicate clearly, whether you're introverted or outspoken

Take ownership, ask “why,” and want your code to have consequences

The Package

Base salary: ~$125K–$130.7K + 11.5% super

Total package: $139,248 – $145,783 (inclusive of super)

Location: Sydney West | Hybrid work model

What You’ll Get

A transformation that’s real—not a buzzword

Direct access to data leaders who welcome autonomy and curiosity

5 weeks annual leave to actually recharge

Paid parental leave with superannuation

Free physio access, wellness perks, discounted health insurance

A team that supports mentorship, trust, and long-term growth

One Last Thing...

This role reports directly to the Head of Data Engineering—a calm, open leader who works well with any personality type. You don’t need to be bubbly or loud to be a great communicator. Whether you're a quiet doer or a big-picture thinker, you’ll be welcomed for what you bring to the table.

If you meet the core requirements, hit apply. I’ll personally review every single CV and get back to you—by phone or email.

What’s the worst that could happen? A rejection.
What’s the best? You land a role that transforms your career with a globally recognised brand.

Let’s find out.
